Welcome to 2023!
StarTree: StarTree nominated @Music and @Vacation for Rank S for 2022 December!StarTree: @Music for the playlist, and @Vacation for Magic Bakery plays NCIS!
LRRH: StarTree, I want to make an @Wish node for New Year Resolutions.
StarTree:202301011001|Done!Ivy: New Year Resolutions haven't been working.
LRRH: I think maybe it would work if it is tied to monthly chapter ranking?
โญ
Sasha: Is this an Abilene Paradox solution question?
LRRH: I suppose it can be. I want to know what is difficult and what the challenges are.
Sasha: @LRRH, If you make a suggestion, you should know at least one person who has a burning desire for it. Otherwise you could be proposing something no one wants.LRRH: ๐ณ๏ธIvy: The way it has been working is that if you want to do something that is credit worthy, then just do it and get credits.LRRH: Should we track the total points we get per chapter?
Ivy: I think the monthly tracking is enough. We shouldn't set a "goal" to meet some progress target.LRRH: But we already are tracking ranking.Ivy: Maybe that is enough.Evelyn: What if we talk about something we wanted to do last year but did not finish?Sasha: Someone needs to give ther personal example, else this topic is might be empty.Black: There might be a Japanese class starting January. Is anyone interested?
Evelyn: We didn't keep that club going. ๐Black: It seems that unless an activity contributes to a chartered monthly ranking, it won't get done at all.LRRH: @Wish can adopt Japanese learning.Black: Thank you.Sasha: Japanese already has a daily quest tracker. Why didn't it stick as a daily quest?Black: I think logging about two lines of Japanese song lyrics is worth maximum of 1 credit per day.Evelyn: Let's do some. ๐คLittle Red Riding Hood thanks all and wishes everyone a happy new year.

"I bet it is [the Lawyer] who did it," says Mr. Ham, "In the reenactment last week, [the lawyer] came up from nowhere and punched [the victim] for no good reason. [The lawyer] wasn't even invited." Someone else chuckles, "You got in a pretty good punch yourself today."
44: It isn't clear to me who was punching whom in the last comment.Black: I think that meant Mr. Ham punched the victim.
๐ [224] Ms. Ready
Amelia: Amelia checks the roster of the reenactment to see if anyone one had a criminal record and gets a match--Ms. Ready, who works at a shooting range. Amelia finds her there. "Despite working here, I don't like guns," Ms. Ready says, "This is my dad's place. I just work here." Amelia asks her about the victim. "Sorry, never met him," says Ms. Ready.
๐ [72] Mr. Fox

๐ [43] Shooting Range

LRRH: I suppose the girlfriend is the murderer because she seems like a patient person.
๐ [195] Crime Scene
Zoey: There are footprints in the soft dirt leading from the body to the back of the field but then dissipate. The shoe size seems to be that of a medium-size man or a large woman.
Zoey: It wasn't clear why the footprint ends from the clue. I assume that it is just because the ground is not soft there or other people have walked over it there. Zoey: I meant I don't think the clue is asking us to imagine the murderer got onto a helicopter. XD
๐ [233] Headquarters
Ivy: The main ingredient of the white powder found on the body is Sodium Hydroxide, also known as lye. It is hightly caustic to skin, but also commonly found in lots of household stuff. The murderer probably used it to erase some kind of evidence.

Cardinal Quest
โญ
This is a routine check of Cardinal Quest status and planning for 2023. This is not an emergency.
StarTree: There are 5 open quests, 193 quest hours, 56 side quests, and 1 prep quest remaining!
P4 completed the potion quest.Tanya: Red 202301010947|mentioned202301011001|New year resolution on Jan 1. I think we should do that for Cardinal Quest by setting a direction and priority of improvement.
Tanya: There are currently 94 unanalyzed fails at the Cardinal Quest Log. So I propose that for the four monthly rank up for @Cardinal, we prioritize failure analysis to be one of them.
Tanya: @StarTree, could you list the categories?
โญ
StarTree: TSN 29, CHK, 21, MND 19, COM 8, PROC 8, PROJ 4, AIM 2, APT 2, DSN 2, HBT 1, LAN 1, SPEC 1!
TSN (29): This type of failures can be avoided by having better notes!
CHK (21): This type of failures can be avoided by adding checks to Evelyn's checklist!
MND (19): This type of failures are mistakes that we don't yet know how to avoid!
COM (8): These are communication failures, where people weren't on the same page!
PROC (8): These failures are caused by not understanding the process!
PROJ (4): These failures are related to insufficient project management!
AIM (2): These failures are related to overall goals we are aimming at!
APT (2): These were "Aptitude", StarTree doesn't know why they are marked as such!
DSN (2): These failures are related to the design!
HBT (1): This failure is related to habit!
LAN (1): This failure is related to language!
SPEC (1): This failure is related to specification!
Tanya: I think we should take care of TSN and CHK on the field during downtime. At a discussion thread like this we should handle other categories.
โญ
Ledia: I beg to differ. I think we should do the ones we know what to do first. Those are the low hanging fruit.
Tanya: There could be some important failure that we overlook because we don't know what to do with them.Ledia: But the counts of those other categories are so small, to me that means they are infrequent and thus inconsequential.Tanya added a New Year Resolution for Cardinal Quest.Tanya: Let's destroy fringe categories. @StarTree please add a count of 94 failures.StarTree: Done!Tanya: The failure on HBT was that the cart lamp was left on over the weekend. It only happened once.
Evelyn: I think that could be part of MND, that someone just forgot.Tanya: But it took two mistakes for that to happen: 1) The lamp was not turned off, 2) the cart was not unplugged from the outlet.Tanya: The cart should always be unplugged at the end of the day to reduce any possible damage.Ledia: But it only happened once. Someone must be trying to leave for the weekend in a hurry.Tanya: Who was the last one at camp?StarTree: It was P4!P4: I'm sorry!Ledia: It is rare that P4 is closing off.P4: P4 left the camp the way it was. ๐ฃEvelyn: It's okay, now we know that the last one should shut down the power. ๐คP4: P4 knows now! ๐Ledia: I think this issue can be prevented by adding a note on the Quest Log. Whoever doing the quest is logging credits, so they will see it.Tanya: I would consider that resolved.HBT group is now empty.Tanya: And I regroup SPEC as TSN.Tanya: The LAN failure was about misinterpreting the meaning of a message because it was written in a foreign language.
Tanya: In particular, someone misinterpreted who will do a task. That led to unnecessary delay.
Evelyn: I think that can be grouped as COM.
โญ
StarTree: The message was on 2022-03-29: "XXใใใซ็ขบ่ชไธใใใ" Then on 2022-03-31, Zoey replied that we are waiting for someone to confirm, but the original message was asking us to confirm!
Zoey: Someone replied "thank you," so I thought they were going to confirm. XDZoey: The cause wasn't that the message was in Japanese. The cause was that I skimmed through emails. XDLedia: I don't think so. It was in English it would be obvious even if you skim through it.Evelyn: I think that week was hectic. So this could be just a reading error. ๐ StarTree: On March 29, 2022, the quest time was from 8:06 AM to 10:36 PM!Evelyn: It was over 12 hours. ๐Tanya: For analysis, I will regroup this MND/EXH. EXH stands for Exhaustion. It marks an error that happens on a High Stress Level day. We might return to the EXH group if we see a pattern of that causing errors.Tanya thanks all for their good work.
So I went to the sandwich shop recommended by my coworkers.
Black: This was written in retrospec on 202301042043 about what happened on 20221231 around 1 PM.
Black: Before the break, there was an end of year gathering when my coworkers recommended a sandwich shop near my aunt that I would be visiting around new year.
Black: It was December 31, it was raining, and the shop will close on the next two days. I arrived at the small shop a little after noon.Black: The small shop was previously at the on ramp to the freeway but that exit has been permanently blocked, presumably for safety reasons.Black: So now the shop is at the deadend of a long street, which is very strange for a sandwich shop to be. Black: On the window of the shop was a "cash only" sign. I was planning to order two sandwiches and three cups of soup. Black: I didn't check how much cash I brought. Black: And it turned out that I was short by $10. Black: "I guess that will have to do," the shop owner said, and told me to come again and bring friends.Evelyn: Such a nice person. ๐Ledia: So are you going to pay it back next time?Black: Yes.Ledia: Just pay and not order anything?Black: Maybe the same order without BBQ sauce. None of us liked the BBQ sauce.Tanya: Why didn't you know that you didn't have enough cash?Black: I thought it was just sandwiches, how much could it be.Tanya: You mean you didn't see the menu?Black: I didn't see the menu, and while I was there I didn't see a menu. The shop was small and had only four seats.Tanya: @StarTree.StarTree: Sandwiches were $15 each and soup was $5 each according to a September 2022 photo of the menu!Ledia: And what was the total?Black: $54, I paid $44.Tanya: Subtotal would be $45. 20% tax?StarTree: The tax was 7.75%!Tanya: The total would be correct if it was $16 per sandwich and $6 per soup.Ledia: Isn't that expensive even at the base price?Black: Oh well.Zoey: The only moral I get from this story is please check the menu first. XDBlack thanks all for chiming in for his story.

This is Tanya calling for routine failure analysis. This is not an emergency.
Tanya: There are 24 Failures to be discussed. I am starting from the ealieest one in April 2022.
Tanya: This failure, along with at least two other, is about taking too long to respond.
โญ
Casey: I think the one in April was special. Logistisc was overwhelmed and couldn't send package in time.
StarTree: The package was issued on Mar 31 but did not ship out until April 4!Ledia: Mar 31 was a Thursday. Apr 4 was a Monday.Tanya: But the package was requested on Mar 29, a Tuesday. It took a whole week to ship.Ledia: What were you expecting?Tanya: To ship out on Mar 29 or Mar 30.Evelyn: That week was the same hectic week. ๐Casey: Adding to the delay, some people were off that week.Tanya: I see. I will mark the cause as EXH.Tanya: Now the other two: May 2, and Oct 19.
StarTree: May 2 (Monday) Quest Time was 10:13 AM to 9:15 PM!Tanya: The response delay was 2 weeks. Could you find more information about the context?StarTree: There was a request for a scroll on Apr 19, but no one responded until May 2!Tanya: What was the Inbox size on Apr 19 and May 2?StarTree: Apr 19: 61, May 1: 155, May 2: 22!Ledia: It looks like someone discovered the request while going through the Inbox.Tanya: Who was going through the Inbox?StarTree: It was Evelyn!Evelyn: I think those two weeks were also overwhelming. ๐StarTree: Deer Crossing was on!Tanya: I see. We had a routine to check inbox but we were overwhelmed by other priorities. I'll mark that as EXH.Tanya: And Oct 19?
StarTree: That week was Eastern Sea quest!Tanya: Marked as EXHTanya: 21 failures remain to be analyzed.Tanya: Apr 21 Deer Crossing. What was that about?
โญ
Black: It was missing specification. We didn't consider that Wisp Circle needed to be compatible with the old glyphs. We were trying to make that work.
Tanya: The next one, Jun 3 is about a lack of standard. When we use a slash as a separator in a title, sometimes we use slash (/), sometimes backslash (\). In MAP, I am using (/) like other teams. Please be consistent.
Tanya: Next on the same day, Jun 3. Someone requested an item that was meant to be removed. @StarTree could you confirm whether the error was in registration or in the the request?
StarTree: Registration was correct!Tanya: I will mark that as EXH because that week we were doing Arsenal.Tanya: Next: Jun 30. We got an enchantment scroll since April, but we didn't use it until June.
Evelyn: We were still doing Arsenal.Tanya: I see. EXH.
โญ
Ledia: Is it helpful if we just mark them EXH? What is the counter measure?
Tanya: After the first round of analysis, we can return and see if we can prevent EXH. The implication is that if we weren't overwhelmed, the issue wouldn't have happened.Evelyn: We will try to stay ahead so that we are not overwhelmed.Tanya: Next: July 2. We had a question that we could ask in a meeting but did not ask.
Ledia: Jul 2 was a Saturday.Sasha: We don't normally have topics for the meeting. I think we just forgot about it until I checked the log that we were supposed to ask.Black: I think in general we should just email instead of waiting for a meeting to ask a question.StarTree: The Inbox size was 28!Tanya: It doesn't look like we were overwhelmed.Sasha: I think that we had already emailed but got no reply. So the meeting was an opportunity to discuss.Tanya: I will set the solution to LOG. If there is a topic to discuss during a meeting, please put it in LOG. Then when we join the meeting we will see it.Tanya: Next: July 12. Arsenal. Gravity Gate leylines were connected wrong.
Evelyn: That was my fault. And we added a step in the checklist.
Tanya: I mark as EXH.Tanya: Next: Aug 5. The meeting invitation has information but I didn't scroll down to read it because I wasn't aware that there were more.
Evelyn: I wonder what kind of countermeasure this takesโฆ now that we know about it.Tanya: I added to TSNTanya: Next: Aug 10. Sasha reported that someone pulled an all nighter and started the next day like a zombie.
Evelyn: Who was the zombieโฆ?Sasha: I don't remember.StarTree: StarTree doesn't have a record of that!Ledia: I bet it was Zoey after binge-watching anime.Zoey: That is highly possible. I don't keep track of that. XDCasey: It was me. I was building Magic Bakery with LEGO. I came then I just went home. I didn't do anything that day.Tanya: I see.Zoey: Ledia lost her bet. XDEvelyn: By the way, I do want to discuss binge-watching. Although it is not related to Cardinal Quest.Tanya: Let's close down and start a new thread. 13 failures remain.Tanya thanks all for their good work.
Binge-Watching is watching many episodes at once. While it can be easier to follow the story from one episode to another, it could also lead to problems if you trade sleep for watching.
๐บ How to stop binge-watching
What do you do if binge-watching becomes disrruptive?
๐ณ Paper Stars
Make paper stars while binge-watching.
P4: This may not stop you from binge-watching, but lets you get something done while watching.
๐งฑ Exercise
You could pair watching video with exercise, and stop when you are beat.
๐ Watch with someone
Find a friend to watch with at a slower pace. Evelyn: So that you wait until they are ready to watch the next episode.
๐งฑ Queue It
Put the show in a queue Black: Put the show you want to binge watch on a queue with other shows or activities, so that you don't watch the next episode until you also go through the other tasks.
๐งฑ Strict bed Time
Set a strict bed time.
๐งฑ Episode limit
Set a limit on how many episodes to watch.
๐งฑ Timed Shut down
Set a timer to cut the power.
๐ฅ Watch Sped-up
Watch at increased speed
๐งฑ Turn off lights
To bring yourself into bed time.
๐งฑ Timed interrupt
Set an hourglass or a timer, and do something else when the time is up.
This thread is about how to stop binge watching. The node is 202301052146|here.
Evelyn: Binge-watching is when you watch many episodes at once. It could become a problem when it disrupts your sleep.
Evelyn: This thread and the node is mainly about how to stop it if it is causing some undesirable effects.Evelyn: I think one way to help stop it is having a friend who would watch with you, so you wait until they are also ready to watch.
Ledia: For my understanding, does someone have a problem of binge-watching?
Evelyn: I think... let's focus on the solutions. ๐ Black: Put the show you want to binge watch on a queue with other shows or activities, so that you don't watch the next episode until you also go through the other tasks.
Ledia: That takes more discipline.Black: Not really. I think when you start switching to a different task, the addiction would be dampened. You might even discover something else more fun to do.Zoey: If you have enough discipline you could limit the number of episodes you watch or set a strict sleep time. But I think the point is that those methods do not work, otherwise you won't be binge-watching in the first place. XD
Sasha: How about setting a time on the TV or computer to shut down?
Ledia: I think that is better than discipline.Zoey: But if you really want to watch it it would be overriden. XDP4: What about binge-watching with a speed up?
Zoey: Does that even work? wouldn't the sound be all messed up? XDSasha: Actually that's not a bad idea. I can watch it fine at 1.5x.Ledia: And what are you watching?Sasha: NCIS.Ledia: Speaking of which, when are we resuming the almost daily detective game?Sasha: Let's say tomorrow. I'm still trying to catch up from the games we played during the break.Evelyn wishes all a good health.

This is Tanya calling for routine failure analysis. This is not an emergency.
Tanya: Continuation of Failure Analysis. 13 remaining.
Tanya: Aug 17. A drawing for crafting was not translated from foreign language.
Evelyn: I think this can be handled by the checklist.Tanya: Next. Aug 30. Arsena/Geyser. What was that about?
Casey: We were waiting for a part to finish crafting, but it might be possible to test using an alternative.Tanya: I will mark that as EXH because we prioritized other tasks.Tanya: Next. Sep 6. Cat Island.
Evelyn: That was about missing content when we merged to the main scroll. There is now a checklist for that.Tanya: Sep 6. Cat Island.
Evelyn: There is also a checklist for that. This was about the content of the scroll does not match the main scroll when they are merged.Tanya: Sep 13. Arsenal. Serpent Cave. We didn't explain how the cave works.
Evelyn: I will add description to TSN.Tanya: Oct 6. Dawn Island. Missing specification. We already added to TSN.
Tanya: Dec 8. Death Valley. There was a failured marked as management where we ordered something when we don't really know whether they are needed.
Ledia: I think that is not entirely accurate. There were two required ingredients. The quest asked for the first but not the second. So we gave them the first, first.Evelyn: But that was strange.Ledia: Not if they already have the second.Zoey: We didn't get a good answer on what is supposed to happen. So we just complete our part first.Sasha: Then was it a failure or not?Tanya: Vladanya marked it as a failure.Zoey: But there was nothing more we could know about it.Evelyn: Let's add a note in TSN that we did not/could not know whether they have the second ingredient.Tanya: That is impossible. The second ingredient will also have to be new.Tanya: Five failures remain.Tanya: Dec 8. A component came with wrong labels. Was the order wrong?
StarTree: We never ordered the labels! Evelyn and StarTree made them!Tanya: Was that the plan?Evelyn: I think that was the plan, but we could have planned better. I will add to checklist.Tanya: Dec 13. Deer Crossing. The same meeting was being scheduled by two people. It was flagged as a communication failure.
Sasha: I should have asked before scheduling. I added a note to TSN.Tanya: Dec 16. Deer Crossing. There was some activity near us where some other questers disconnected equipment that is running a test. We didn't warn them even though we were near it.
Evelyn: I was there and knew they were moving something, but they were in my blindspot. When I realized what happened it was already too late.Ledia: It was a Friday.Evelyn: It was a low stress Friday. We were just tidying things around camp and doing clerical tasks.Tanya: What is the counter measure?Evelyn: I think I should have asked them earlier what they were planning and reposition so I could see them.Black: This is KY. Hazard Prediction.Tanya: Training topics will go to TSN.Ledia: The training is not going to prevent the situation if Evelyn wasn't there. How about a sign that says, "Testing in progress, do not power off"?Tanya: That is a good idea.Sasha: Do you attach the sign only when the equipment is in use?Ledia: I think it can just be there permanently. Whoever uses the equipment will know if they can power off.LRRH: I will ask that team about this suggestion.LRRH: They are off but I made labels.Tanya: I mark this resolution type SGN for SignageLRRH: I still need their permission to put a sign on their equipment.Tanya: Dec 21. Red hit her head after connecting a leyline.
LRRH: But it was fine. I had protect on.Tanya: But you didn't notice that you would hit something.Ledia: For countermeasure, how about choosing a path that does not have such hazards?Tanya: I consider that resolved by TSN, and changed the category to SFT for Safety.Tanya: Last one. Dec 21. Deer Crossing. We were asked to check an enchantment, but would have made a wrong call if the asker didn't give us further hint that it was wrong.
Casey: I was careless.Evelyn: I have just added to TSN.Tanya: That concludes this round of failure analysis. The next target area is to clear the messages we marked to add to TSN.Ledia: Is the New Year Resolution completed? I thought the plan was to do one failure analysis each month.Tanya: It is completed. We caught up and cleared all of them.LRRH: Good job.Tanya is recognized for the skill Collapsed Time Frame.Tanya thanks all for their good work.
Jim and Sarah are spies working together. They cannot meet each but they need to pass something important through a public locker. Each of them has a separate lock that only they may open or close. How would they use the locker to pass the parcel securely?
Show Answer
Jim puts the secret in the locker then locks it with his lock. When Sarah sees that, she puts on her own lock. After that, when Jim sees Sarah's lock, Jim unlocks his. Finally, Sarah gets the content by unlocking hers.

This is for discussing solutions to the Abilene Paradox at this node.
Sasha: Abilene Paradox is the undesirable situation where people trying to do something nice for others end up doing something no one wants.
Zoey: I think this kind of issue is easy to solve by simply knowing that it exists.
Evelyn: I think there can be some method to avoid that situation, such as brainstorming for more options. If the person who gives the first suggestion gives more than one suggestion and start comparing them, then others will see that the choices are meant to be compared and speak their mind.
Black: You can keep a tally on who likes which choice.
Ledia: I can't really think of anything to add.Evelyn: I want to add the concept of mindfulness.
๐
Evelyn: Mindfulness includes paying attention to whether others really like an idea or are trying to be polite. Being mindful of other's emotion dispels Abilene Paradox.
Tanya: I think there is enough content for the Abilene Paradox solutions. Let's also do Self-Interest vs Other-Interest
Tanya: Let's also do Self-Interest vs Other-Interest. How should we define these terms?
โญ
3B: I have thought about it and I think Self-Interest exists in pursuing Win-Lose and Win-Win outcomes, while other-interest exists in pursuing Lose-Win and Win-Win outcomes. In such definition, there is a middle ground where the two overlap.
3B: The main difference is that when a Win-Win outcome is unreachable, a person with a Self-Interest worldview will choose Win-Lose. While a person with an Other-Interest world view will choose Lose-Win.Ledia: How do you determine a person who pursues Lose-Win is not in fact pursuing Win-Win if they want to sacrifice?
3B: It escaped me...LRRH: Is there a point in drawing such difference?Tanya: It was part of the prompt: "self-interest is good for all." LRRH: But deciding whether a person is acting based on self-interest or other-interest would not change the range of solutions to a problem. Ledia: I think there is a perspective based on "invisible hand" that even if people only pursue Win-Lose, the outcome will be as much Win-Win and society can get. If we bypass the term "self-interest", I think that is what the prompt means.Sasha: I disagree. I think the original meaning is not pursuing Win-Lose. It is just pursuing self-win. So that includes Win-Lose and Win-Win. Self-interest should be ambivalent toward whether others also win. Self-interest means, "I pursue my Win." It is not intrinsically hostile.Ledia: Then let's dissect it. Is being hostile to others when pursuing self-win good? Such as when you know a way for Win-Win, but you intentionally choose a Win-Lose path.Sasha: There is a difference between winning a battle and winning a war. If you are to harsh on others, they could fight back and you lose long term. So even if you pursue self-interest, it doesn't mean that you would be short-sighted.Ledia: Then if you know that you will die? then you don't care about people fighting back?Sasha: People normally don't know when they will die, and they could have some people they want to protect.Zoey: I call foul. "Have some people they want to protect" is not part of self-interest.Sasha: It is. It is like you want people to worship you, so so keep your worshipers alive. That is self-interest.
ERROR
Sasha: Such as the Abilene Paradox, when you try to do something good for other while buring what you want for yourself.Ivy: If Self-interest is defined to include Win-Lose and Win-Win, then its opposite would include Lose-Lose also.Ledia: For my understanding, if someone forces you to do something, and you do it because you don't want to be killed, are you doing it out of self-interest?Sasha: Yes. And that also includes when you escape or fight back. Acting in self-interest does not excuse someone else's wrong doing.Ledia: But how do you define wrong doing? The oppressor is also acting in self-interest.Sasha: Everyone breathes, is breathing evil?
โญ
LRRH: I don't think we can easily resolve this definitional conflict. I am leaning toward people who attack "self-interest" are suffering from black-or-white thinking. They cannot see that prioritzing self-interest is at least neutral.
LRRH: A person who prioritizes self-interest (Win-Lose or Win-Win), and a person who prioritizes other-interest (Lose-Win or Win-Win) are compatiable. There is no conflict to resolve.
โญ
Ledia: What if you only prioritize Win-Win? Then shouldn't that view be strictly better than a view that would prioritize Win-Lose or Win-Win?
LRRH: Yes, I suppose.Ledia: Then Win-Win is strictly good. Win-Lose is not as good. Self-Interest includes Win-Lose, so Self-interest is also not as good. Other-interest and self-interest might equivalent, that's why we can't tell which one is better among them.
LRRH: I agree.3B: I think we might have gone further than what I can draw in a page. So, after page 12, who wants to move first?
LRRH: First I jump onto the turtle because I also want people to speak their minds.
Sasha: That gives an example where self-interest is good.Zoey: Then I want to show that Abilene Paradox is a weak attack because people who are susceptible to it actually want others to benefit, so once they know about this paradox and try to know what people really think, the paradox would not materialize. It is easily dispelled. You don't need to pursue self-interest to defeat Abilene Paradox.
3B: What do you want to do on scene?Zoey: I cast faerie fire and show that the "flood" is an illusion.3B: Okay. I think then Sasha would need to response. But please let me draw this first.3B thanks all for the content.
When a group decides something no one wants out of mutual politeness.
Abilene Paradox is the undesirable situation where people trying to do something nice for others end up doing something no one wants.

A problem that troubles you is not a problem too small to discuss.
Black: The whale nursery is ordering optional sweatshirts. I need to reply by Monday but I cannot decide whether to get it.
Reason not to: The sweatshirt is a 1/4 zip. I don't like putting on or taking off clothing over my head. I also already have a whale nursery jacket that is very warm. Even if I get this new sweatshirt, I don't think I will use it.
Reason to: Would it be weird if everyone else has the new sweatshirt and I don't?
โญ
Sasha: That is Abilene Paradox. You are hit.
Zoey: @Black, why are you giving Sasha ammo? XDSasha: Abilene Paradox is not as rare as you make it to be.Evelyn: Are we still waiting for 3B? ๐ 3B: I think problem solving has higher priority.
โญ
Zoey: Okay. So you know there is this thing called 202301071252|Abilene Paradox. You are imagining that everyone else will get and wear the sweatshirt. If you get that sweatshirt just to fit in, you are in the dead center of Abilene Paradox because you are doing something you don't actually want to do.
Zoey: So, it would help if you know that many people will not wear it. Do you have evidence that they will not?
Black: The reason of that sweatshirt is that it is cold and some people are wearing their own hoodies with other logos. The nursery cannot ban those hoodies without giving them an alternative.
Ledia: And how many people are wearing those hoodies now?
Black: Few. Maybe around 10%.Ledia: And you are not one of them, are you?Black: I am not. I wear short sleeves most of the time. If it is cold I wear the old nursery logo jacket. That jacket has full zipper. And even that is normally temporary because the facility has heating.Ivy: Just don't get it. You don't need it. It is a waste of resources.Black: What if I will grow to like that sweatshirt?
Zoey: But you already said you don't like wearing clothing that goes over your head. What is going on? XDTanya: The fear of regret is stronger than the fear of waste.Tanya: As I have always said, the cost of indecision in time is more than the cost of waste. If you can't decide, then pick the choice that you would regret less.Black: I think that would mean to get it, because I think someone is going to order one that is sized too big. Then I can trade with them.Sasha: I would agree on Tanya about regret. This reason has nothing to do with other people.Zoey: But you get piles of board games. XDSasha: But isn't it better if you play it and confirm you don't like it, than not to try at all?Evelyn: But if you are getting it in case someone else orders the wrong size... I think I might do that too. ๐ Ledia: Shouldn't you just ask if the nursery will re-order if there is a demand? If they say yes then don't order it.
Sasha: And what if they say no?Ledia: Realistically, why would it be no? There are new workers and they need uniform. Old uniforms get worn out. Why wouldn't they routinely reorder uniform?Sasha: Double standard. You are using double standard. You asked for fact, but when I asked you what if the fact goes the other way, you said won't care.Ledia takes one psychic damage.LRRH: Little Red worries that this topic won't end.
Casey: Let's go treasure hunting while thinking about it.
โญ
Ivy: You are planning to get one sweatshirt that is inconvenient to wear, and easy to get dirty and frayed. What will you do with the existing jacket that is more convenient and more durable?
Black: If the new sweatshirt is redundant, then I might wear it at home.Ivy: And what do you do with what you already have at home?Black: They are clothing, they eventually wear out. Then I have replacement.LRRH: I think you already have more clothing than you wear.Ivy: I am trying to stop unnecessary things from being made.Black: Things I don't wear tend to be clothing I need to put on from the top.Tanya: Because you wear glasses.Ledia: Quarter zip should be fine with glasses. But it is of couse less convenient than full zip.
โญ
Evelyn: What is the ideal outcome?
Black: That my jacket has the new logo, and others can also get that jacket, which has full zip.Evelyn: How about you make the suggestion about a jacket and get the sweatshirt? I'll take it if you don't end up wearing it.Tanya: Evelyn likes sourvenirs.Ledia: Well, now we've got a demand. Is it settled?Black: I think that is settled.Black decides to make the suggestion and get the sweatshirt.Black thanks all for helping.

๐จ PLOT TWIST 3
StarTree: StarTree followed the money and found that the guild is being investigated for distributing a grant of $10k without accepting competing applicants! The treasurer is Mr. Ham, the victim's best friend!
Sasha: Friendly reminder: only six clues to be revealed in this round.Tanya: The girlfriend and the daughter are low on my suspect list.
๐ [33] Best Friend Mr. Ham
StarTree: Mr. Ham awarded the grant to the victim without telling the rest of the guild, and the bank clerk remembers the victim cashing out the check and giving half of the money to Mr. Ham!
44: 44 confronts Mr. Ham about the grant, "Did you split the grant with [the victim]?" "No, that was an entirely different matter."
Sasha: Money is money, what is the difference? Even if the victim owes Ham money, if Ham helps the victim get money illegally so the victim may pay him back, Ham is still part of the crime.Tanya: Mr. Ham has a motive. Is it bad if we mark which suspsect has motive, means, and opportunity?Sasha: For this game, let's wait until we guess.Tanya: What if there is a separate notes area with spoiler alert?Sasha: I think that is doable. But you would have to update it since you don't know all the clues yet.Ledia: I think it would be convenient. Especially if you stretch the play time.Evelyn: Yes, I would like a summary. ๐ Tanya: I added notes on Mr. Ham.Evelyn: It is very helpful. ๐LRRH: The word 'Opportunity' is too long. how about 'chance'?Ledia: Better.
๐ [3] Headquarters
StarTree: Yo! Mr. Fox calls the HQ saying the Lawyer is outside his house with a gun trying to kill him!
Ledia: Ledia rushes to Mr. Fox's house and sweeps the area. Mr. Fox is safe and there is no sign of the lawyer.
Ledia: Was Mr. Fox under influence of just alcohol or hallucination? Could he have killed the victim not knowing that he did it?
๐ [124] Mr. Fox
StarTree: StarTree looks up the alarm record of Mr. Fox's bracelet and found that it ran off for three minutes the previous morning!
Zoey: What does 'previous morning' mean? Is that within the time of death? XDStarTree: StarTree has no idea!Tanya: I think that means Mr. Fox does not have an alibi.
๐ [165] Crime Scene
Zoey: Zoey does an experiment to see whether Mr. Fox could reach the crime scene and back in 3 minutes. She ran from Fox's house to the crime scene and back at a pace she assumes Mr. Fox is capable. It took her about 2 minutes.
Zoey: I know we don't have a motive for Fox. Yet.Ledia: No motive, no means, only opportunity.
๐ [88] Papa Lawyer
Tanya: After learning that the lawyer's father is an antique gun collector, Tanya asked Red to find and talk to him.
LRRH: Little Red knocks on Papa Lawyer's front door but there is no answer. Her dog brings her to a shed where she knocks again. "Just a second," replies Papa Lawyer. He opens the door and apologizes, "Sorry about that, I was busy making a new batch of soap. What can I do for you, little miss?"
LRRH: Can you...Ivy: Yes, lye is a key ingredient of homemade soap.Zoey: Is it just me or everyone who knows chemistry in this game is a murderer?Sasha: We are lucky that the murderers are not forensic scientists.Ledia: Are we on the same page that although Red finds Papa Lawyer making soap, we can reasonably assume that Lawyer Jr. also knows that?Tanya: Yes.
๐ [115] Papa Ready
James: James goes to a fellow agency to help identify a decomposed body that the shooting range owner, Papa Ready, was found digging it up at a site 30 miles away from the reenactment site. Found with the body was a large diameter slug--the bullet fired from a shotgun.
Black: This seems to be a separate incident.James: You don't say.Sasha: Okay! We will reveal Plot Twist 4 next round and there will be two free clues! If you want detective EXP in the meantime, you could summarize the notes for the suspects if it has not been done!

James: The body that Papa Ready dug up is identified as Mr. Bank, who has been missing for over a year. On his body are strands of Ms. Ready's hair.
Sasha: There are only two free clues in this round. First come first serve.Tanya: I only have one prime suspect, Mr. Lawyer.Ledia: I think we are really getting the drift down. Black: We are still missing any physical evidence connecting the murder to the lawyer. I think we should reveal HQ first. If that doesn't show anything unexpected then reveal the lawyer.Tanya: I am fine with that plan.
๐ [271] Headquarters
Ivy: Ivy tested the American rifle taken from the shooting range and concludes that the bullet that killed the victim could have been fired from that also. The bullet that killed the victim has an unusually large amount of rust trapped in its grooves.
Ivy: I think that might mean the bullet has been in the barrel for a long time. The discharge might be an accident, and...Ivy: We are missing a clue on whether the rifle from the shooting range has been recently fired.Ledia: I think we might need bonus clue to also reveal clues from Ms. Ready.P4: ** P4 sings **StarTree: StarTree thinks maybe the murderer is not the same person who got lye onto the victim!Zoey: What about the footprints, what do they mean?P4: Maybe the victim was stepping backward until he was shot?Sasha: By the way... with the new scoring, everyone of us who has joined so far will take part in the accuracy ratio.

๐ [160] Papa Ready
Sasha: Having been caught red headed moving the body of Mr. Bank, Papa Ready confessed that Ms. Ready killed Mr. Bank, but insisted that they have nothing to do with the murder of the victim. "Why did you dig up Mr. Bank's body?" asks Sasha. "I was afraid that [my daughter] would crack, so I wanted to move that evidence." says Papa Ready.
Sasha: If you believe that Papa Ready is truthful that they have nothing to do with the victim's murder, then the lawyer would be the prime suspect.Tanya: Still short of any physical evidence linking him to the murder.Sasha: We are still four AA short of the first bonus clue. Let's start making your choice.Zoey: I pick the Lawyer.

LRRH: "Hello Mister, I am with Magic Detectives and would like to speak to your son," says Little Red. "Oh, welcome," says Papa Lawyer, "is this about [this case] or [that case]?" Apparently Mr. Lawyer routinely talks to detectives, but Little Red wants to ask about... "What nice rifle you have," Little Red speaks about the antique British rifle hanging on the wall, "does it still fire?" "I doubt it, my dear. Most of these guns are just for show, too rusty to be any use otherwise."
Zoey: Whew. XDSasha: I switch to the Lawyer.James: Come on, Ivy, thanks Daddy for singing.Ivy: I switch to the Lawyer.StarTree: Wee~~! ** StarTree jumps to the lawyer ship~ **P4: P4 flies to the laywer ship also.Sasha: Okay. Now we reveal the unused clues. Starting with the crime scene.

Zoey: Zoey finds a small trace of gunpower at the crime scene. Zoey wonders if HQ can match this gunpower to one of the rifles they collected as evidence.
๐ฅ [189] Victim's Girlfriend
Unused Round 3 Clue
LRRH: Little Red was talking to the girlfriend about the note. "The worst part was that [the victim] was holding out on me," says the girlfriend, "He just got a big check and didn't expect me to find out." Little Red notices a bottle of drain opener in the cabinet as the girlfriend is looking for something to drink.
LRRH: Does...Ivy: Yes. Drain opener has lye. Zoey: Uh-oh. TPK! XDLedia: Have some faith would you. ๐Sasha: Okay. Let's reveal the round 4 clue of the girlfriend last.Zoey: XD

Evelyn: This is the saddest scene so far. ๐ขStarTree: ๐ญ
๐ฅ [22] Best Friend Mr. Ham
44: 44 asked Mr. Ham to explain how what he did was not the same as splitting the grant money. "At that point it was his own personal money. He could use it for anything. including paying off what he owed me. I have given him several loans since his divorce." says Mr. Ham. "Did your fight that morning have anything to do with this?" asks 44. "He wanted more. I said no, and he wouldn't shut up."
Sasha: Nope. Mr. Ham is guilty.Tanya: Agreed.
๐ฅ [140] Ms. Ready
Unused Round 3 Clue
Amelia: Amelia asked Ms. Ready where her father went, but the daughter won't answer. "Were both of you involved in the murder of [the victim]?" asked Amelia. To that Ms. Ready shook her head. "Tell me where your father is, or you are going down alone." "Go ahead and arrest me then," said Ms. Ready. Just then, a fellow agency informed us that her father was caught digging up a body.
๐ฅ [122] Ms. Ready
Unused Round 4 Clue
Amelia: Amelia confronted Ms. Ready on the body that James identified, "Who was Mr. Bank? Another boyfriend?" Ms. Ready won't answer.
44: 44 interrupts the interrogation to talk to Amelia. "Ms. Ready has an alibi. Several customers confirmed that she was at work at the time of the murder."
๐ฅ [228] Victim's Grilfriend
Unused Round 4 Clue
LRRH: "That's some pretty dangerous stuff you have in the cabinet," Little Red says about the bottle of drain opener in the kitchen cabinet. "That's what I said!" says the girlfriend, "he never puts stuff back where they should be after using them! He drives me crazy all the time!" The girlfriend seems to have zero sympathy for the victim's murder.
๐๏ธ SOLUTION
Sasha: The murderer is the Lawyer!
Motive: Revenge for the two drunks who put his wife into a coma.
Means: The Lawyer used the rusty British rifle of his dad. That was a big mistake as it could only barely fire and left rust trace on the bullet. That undoed his attempt to use lye (which he also took from his dad's shed), to destory evidence that might have left on the victim's body.
Opportunity: The solution didn't say that the Lawyer stalked the victim, but it was implied.
Sasha:Please return for the next case!

Sasha: The victim is found dead over the keyboard of his computer at his apartment. Still running on his computer is an MMO game called Dark Wonderland.
Sasha: To prepare for the finale of Magic Bakery Plays NCIS, I decided that we will first re-do Case 1, which only Tanya and I played.Sasha: Since we already know the solution, we will sit out in the discussion and take a fail.Sasha: We will reveal all clues for Round 1 and Round 2, then 6 for Round 3, and 2 for Round 4.
๐ [260] Crime Scene
Evelyn: The body has dark blue lips and excessive salivation. Evelyn estimates that the time of death was one day ago. According to report, he was found by the apartment manager.
Tanya: At his computer, Tanya sees two email threads of angry exchanges, one with a Mr. Conan, the other with a Mr. Dragon.
Evelyn: I think the victim was poisoned, although the clue didn't say so explicitely. ๐
๐ [276] Headquarters
StarTree: StarTree looks up the game Dark Wonderland, which has several thousand people online at the moment!
Zoey: Death gun. XDLedia: Is the apartment manager one of the suspects?Tanya: No.Ledia: It is a little odd how the apartment manager discovered the body after just one day.
๐ฎ [157] Mr. Conan
P4: P4 is practicing oracle skill with mom. What do you see, P4? P4 sees Mr. Conan reading a video game magazine that talks about him. The headline reads, "What is Conan's next big one?" Mr. Conan mumbles, "All that work for nothing. Why did [the victim] freeze me out? I wasn't asking for all that big a share. Why did he do that?"
๐ [180] Mr. Dragon
3B: A fellow agency has just received a call from Mr. Dragon requesting protection from a Mr. Diamond. Dragon says that Diamond is the murderer and he would be next.
๐ [4] Mr. Diamond, the Mad Hatter
Ledia: Ledia says on the channel, "Mr. Diamond, the ex-pro-wrestler? He is better known as the Mad Hatter. I wonder what he does nowadays."
Ledia: If the victim was poisoned, I don't really see the murderer would be an ex-pro-wrestler.Black: Maybe the Mad Hatter serves tea.
๐ [223] Victim's Coworker Mr. Blake
StarTree: StarTree finds that the victim had filed an assault charge against his co-worker Mr. Blake, who is a soldier with numerous records of losing his temper toward his commanding officers, and is on probation for civilian assault charges!
Ledia: This coworker also does not fit the profile of someone who would murder using poison.Zoey: The murderer must be a chemist. Follow the fumes. XD
๐ [29] Victim's Father
LRRH: Little Red visits the victim's father to break the news to him. "I don't even have a son," says the father as he begins to weep, "not after what he said when his mother died a month ago. Before that, I hadn't seem him for more than a year. I once loved my son, but now I think I bred the devil."
๐ฌ [144] Victim's Girlfriend
Mikela: Mikela finds where everyone has been and joins the channel. "According to the absolutely true gossips, the victim has a long-distance girlfriend who has been a fan of the game Dark Wonderland that the victim and Mr. Dragon created together. However, rumor has it that the victim recently dumped her over the phone saying that he needs more space!
Ledia: It wouldn't surprise me if it was his girlfriend who came looking for him and discovered the body.Sasha: Just a reminder to the newer players that if you want to level up your detective level, you need to both guess the right suspect at Round 4, and has enough lightbulb ๐ก moments during the game. You cannot get lightbulbs from what the clue says, but you can get them from interpreting those clues, reminding others about them, and by summarizing the motive, means, and opportunities at the Detective Notes section.Mikela: What is the plan after NCIS?Sasha: We have Consulting Detective, Detective, and 221 B Baker Street. I think it will last for more than one year.Mikela: Mikela is thinking whether the guild will do puzzles again.Zoey: I quite like the pacing of NCIS, eight clues and stop. We can do that every day.Mikela: Could we rotate so that some days we do puzzle time?Sasha: I think the weekend is the natural good time to do puzzle time because we don't marathon with this pacing.Ledia: Or any day we don't have enough time to do a detective round.Mikela: The detective game runs for four nights straight. Is it bad to have a puzzle time when it ends before starting the next one back to back?Sasha: That is only NCIS. I have no idea how many sessions it takes for Consulting Detective.Evelyn: I think puzzle time is good in the morning. Mikela: Then puzzle time will never get prime time. ๐ขEvelyn: I am okay with alternating.Sasha: Okay. Let's try this: In between each case is puzzle time until Mikela is satisfied. This applies to games I run because I think the channel is just first come first serve.Mikela: I am fine with that.Sasha: And of course you can also start a puzzle in the morning or after we have a detective round, or when there is no time to have a detective round.Sasha: I think the main challenge is that we don't want a situation (like before) where we are just trying to get a session over with so the next activity could start.Evelyn: I think not scheduling them on the same night would be more relaxing.Mikela: And I understand that the players of detective would want to keep running a case until it ends, since it is harder to remember what the case is about otherwise.Sasha: Exactly.Sasha: So, by this plan, the next puzzle night is this Saturday. The plan for tomorrow night is Case 1 Plot Twist 2!

Hey hey hey, it is puzzle morning!
Mikela: After riots in a large institution, one section did not reopen for much longer compared to the other sections. Why?
Evelyn: It can't be it is destroyed, can it? ๐ Sasha: Too normal.Ledia: Do we get detective XP for guessing?Sasha: I would say yes. But perhaps not the win ratio, otherwise no one would play.Ledia: How about we replace the buzzer with the lightbulb for DXP, and don't use the buzzer unless you really want to wager? Then if you use the buzzer, that could affect your detective hit rate.Sasha: I think that is a good idea.Casey: Is it because many rioters work in that section, they quit or were arrested?Mikela: Here is a hint: Evelyn is closer, the rioting was violent, but it wasn't damages to the building that prevented reopening.Sasha: You mean it is damage to some property, but not damage to the building itself? Like things were stolen during the rioting?Mikela: Sasha is extremely close!Ledia: They destroyed the furnitures? To make barricade?Mikela: Not the furnitures in this case, but you are closer than Sasha!Evelyn: Did they burn books in a library?Mikela: Extremely close! The institution is not a library! And the object they stole and used were not books!P4: Was it a school?Mikela: It is an edcuational place but not a school. I'll allow three more guesses before revealing the answer.Tanya: Was it a gallery?Mikela: It is a type of gallery, but the object in question are not paintings!Sasha: Museum and statues?Mikela: It is a museum, but the objects are more boring than statues!Ledia: This is like playing Clue. We are guessing the place, the object, maybe we should be guessing the motive also.Mikela: I am only giving you one last guess!Casey: What is boring? Fossils?Mikela: The rioters threw rock samples from the geology department at the police! Congratulations, Casey, your guess was the closest!Evelyn: ๐Ledia: If Casey used the buzzer, would the answer be close enough as a win?Mikela: I assume that question is for Sasha!Sasha: This is way harder than NCIS. NCIS is basically a multiple choice out of six. This is fill in the blank.Ledia: Well, you can decide how difficult it is by deciding how close the answer needs to be to score a hit. Is fossil close enough to rock samples to score a hit?Sasha: If you were to decide, what would you say?Ledia: I would say the closest guess, which Mikela normally determines by her standard, gets a win. But guesses that are not as close do not get a loss. There is no penalty to guessing, but the winner can win.Evelyn: I think that would be fun.Sasha: Wouldn't that inflat the hit ratio? I don't want people getting easy wins at @Puzzle, because puzzles are short.Ledia: I think it caters to a different player type because puzzles are shorter.Sasha: I am not against a player getting a win in puzzle. If you use the buzzer you may get a win. I just don't want people getting a win without any risk of getting a loss.Ledia: But if we don't know how close an answer needs to be to get a win, how do we judge whether to take the risk?Mikela: That is a very interesting question!Tanya: In NCIS, the chance of getting a win so far is close to 100% since we discuss.LRRH: I think the possibility of getting a loss would keep people from using the buzzer.Ledia: It depends on the leeway.Mikela: During the drumroll stage of the puzzle, I would let people propose answers. When there are three choices or so, the players would vote. The closest choice is the winning choice even if it is not exactly the same as the solution. Here, the difference between this and the detective game is that a puzzle player is not obligated to pick a final answer. They may come to just get lightbulbs.Sasha: I am fine with this idea.Ledia: That is very reasonable. I am fine with it too.Mikela: Okay. We will try that next time. And the next puzzle will be this if you want to start thinking about it before we discuss:Mikela: A man told his wife that he buried guns in the garden when he did not. Why?Mikela wishes all a wonderful day!

Sasha: โ ๏ธ The game content is rated "Age teen to adult"
๐จ PLOT TWIST 2
Evelyn: Suspecting that the cause of death is poison, Evelyn asks the field agents to bag all suspcious food and drink, and perhaps also the keyboard that the victim would have touched.
๐ [118] Crime Scene
Zoey: At Evelyn's prompt, Zoey bags samples of all remaining food and drink in the victim's apartment. Among them is one from an almost empty bottle of energy drink that had rolled under a couch on the side of the computer desk. It could very well have rolled from the desk to the couch.
Zoey: If we were really playing as ourselves, I could have tried casting detect poison to see if the bottle is poisoned.Sasha: I think we can do that, such as when a clue finds poison, you could say that you used magic to detect it.
๐ [240] Headquarters
Zoey: Worried that somehow the poison might degrade over time, Zoey casts detect poison on the bottle from under the couch. it is definitely poisoned, but she couldn't tell what kind of poison. Zoey makes a note and sends it back to the lab.
Ivy: At HQ, Ivy runs tests for the poison, and the bottle. "In the meantime, I matched fingerprints on the bottle to the victim's coworker Mr. Blake." says Ivy.
Zoey: What kind of evidence was the murderer trying to hide? Their own scent? Zoey is recognized for the skill Detect Poison.
๐ [169] Victim's Coworker/Boss Mr. Blake
Kisaragi: The detectives visit Mr. Blake at his house. "We would like to ask you a few questions about your desk resassignment at work," says Kisaragi. "I was promoted to become a product manager," says Mr. Blake. "Do you know [the victim]?" "Of course, he is constantly reminding me how unqualified I am for the job, so we fought. Is that what this is about?"
Kisaragi: The clue card doesn't say Mr. Blake is just the victim's coworker. It says he is the victim's boss. Since Mr. Blake has just been promoted, I don't think he would kill the victim. Kisaragi: Mr. Blake also seems calm and doesn't know that the victim has died.P4: Why would a boss be less likely a murderer?Kisaragi: I think a boss has other means to revenge so they are less likely to resort to murder.P4: ๐
๐ฎ [198] Mr. Conan
P4: P4 sees Mr. Conan at his apartment. There are computer manuals, a very dead plant, open bags of chips, colorful frogs in a sealed terrarium, and art pieces made of wire hangers.
P4: Mr. Conan has poison frogs.Zoey: Arrest the chemist! XD
๐ [73] Mr. Dragon
Ledia: Ledia took the quest to protect Dragon, who has many locks for his front door. "You've got to get to [Diamond] before he gets to me," says Dragon. "Someone else is onto him," says Ledia, "Do you want my protection or not?" Dragon let Ledia in. "Why would [Diamond] wish you harm?" asks Ledia. "He vowed revenge on both of us, insisting that we owe him more money for the [poor] work he did." says Dragon.
Ledia: It wasn't entirely clear from the clue, but I think he meant Diamond was the victim and Dragon's employee.
๐ [66] Mr. Diamond, the Mad Hatter
Black: Black interviews Mr. Diamond at his residence, which is a fleabag hotel. "I wouldn't be here if [the victim's company] had just paid me my money," says Diamond, clearly agitated, "I worked for months, doing voice-overs for some stupid computer game. Now all I ever hear from them is 'check is in the mail.'" According to records, Diamond filed a lawsuit against the victim's company, but, "Why did you end up dropping those charges?" asks Black. Diamond is stunned at that question.
Black: Diamond might not have enough money to sue. He is in the opposite relation of Blake. Diamond is running out of options to get even.
๐ [47] Victim's Father
LRRH: "What did your son do, [Papa Victim]?" asks Little Red. "My son was a genius. He programmed his first game at 7. When he asked me to fund him to quote 'take over the gaming world' I let him borrow my retirement fund. How could my own son cheat me? How?" says the father.
LRRH: Do we know where the money went?Zoey: I don't think any clue mentioned the victim's finance. Maybe the money is just in his bank account?LRRH: Would the father get the money back if his son is dead? The first clue of the father mentioned that he was the victim's only living next of kin.Ledia: I think it would go to him.Evelyn: ๐

A man told his wife that he buried guns in the garden when he did not. Why?
Mikela: Following the previous discussion, you will come up with some ideas then we will see which one is the closest to the solution!Casey: Is this one of those questions where "Garden" or "Gun" have a different meaning?Robert: So she wouldn't dig in the yard and find the bodies?Amelia: Because he wants his wife to dig a hole in the garden.Black: Why would she want to dig up his guns?Amelia: To kill him for burying the guns.Tanya: I think that solution would not be complete unless the husband has a reason to provoke the wife into killing him.Sasha: And why would the husband need to bury the gun? He could probably provoke the wife in many other ways and just have the gun easily accessible to the wife.Ledia: It would seem that the purpose is to dig the garden. But why would buried guns be an incentive for the wife to dig?Zoey: The one I knew was about a stream with pebbles. A farmer wants to get the pebbles off the stream and spread rumors that someone dropped gold there. Then strangers came removing the pebbles as they futilely search for the gold.44: The one I read is potatoes. ๐ฌBlack: What does that mean?Mikela: Spoiler Alert below!
44: The story/joke goes that the guy is in prison, his wife told him during visit that she wants to grow potatoes, he told her to wait. Then a few days later, he called the wife using the prison phone and tell her that he buried guns in the garden (knowing that the phone is tapped). A couple days later, a bunch of FBI came to their house and dug around the garden, but found nothing. In the next visit, he tells his wife that she can plant the potatoes now that the soil is plowed. ๐ Zoey: That's the answer isn't it? Now what? XDLedia: Do you instantly get a win if you have heard of the solution?Sasha: I have not thought about that. What do you think?Ledia: I think that has nothing to do with detective skill so that shouldn't be a win.Tanya: How do you tell if a person already knows the solution of a mystery?Black: If a person already knows the solution of many puzzles, wouldn't they be unable to level up if you not let them get a win?Ledia: But you don't get a win if you replay the same mystery. That's why Tanya and Sasha take a fail for NCIS Case 1 when we replay it.Sasha: That's true.Mikela: We could skip this one and try another one.Sasha: I think that is what we need to do.Mikela: I added a spoiler alert tag. I will reveal the clues now, in case you decide that 44's solution is NOT the answer.Mikela: Clue 1/2: The man lied but was not trying to deceive his wife.Mikela: Clue 2/2: The man worried that gardening is too hard for his wife who lives alone and has no one to help her.Sasha: There is nothing suggesting anything unlike 44's version.Mikela: Then next is the solution...Mikela: The man was in prison and knew that all his mail would be read. His wife asked him when she should plant the potatoes. He replied in mail, "don't plant any potatoes, I hid some guns in the garden." Later, his wife wrote back, "The police came and dug up the garden but found nothing." He replied, "Now plant the potatoes."Mikela: Congratulations! Together you know everything!Robert: I like this one. Robert: Maybe only applies to America and China. I feel like some other countries would be courteous enough to undo what they did.Zoey: XDLedia: After having the clues, if I had proposed an alternative solution same as 44's, but the communication method was letters instead of telephone, would that be a distinct choice that would beat his solution?Mikela: I think that difference is not significant enough.Tanya: But your book is "Classic Lateral Thinking Puzzles".Zoey: We have to think old school. XDSasha: I would say if you dare to make a good case to split hair then let's do it.Mikela: Okay. Next puzzle will be: A man has been enjoying his meal at a dinner party and had just started a delicious dessert. Why did he deliberately knock over the salt cellar into his dessert and ruin it?Mikela wishes all a wonderful day!

Sasha: โ ๏ธ The game content is rated "Age teen to adult"
๐จ PLOT TWIST 3
Tanya: FYI: The victim was hired by the military to develop a new computer game called SEAL, intended as a recruiting tool.
Sasha: Friendly reminder: only six clues to be revealed in this round. Since Tanya and I have already played this, we will not be discussing.Ledia: I think we should reveal more clues for Mr. Conan because he has poison frogs. We don't know how his frogs got to the victim, so we need more clues.P4: P4 wants to free the frogs.Evelyn: ๐LRRH: Which two suspects are the least likely?Ledia: I think Dragon is unlikely, because he is still working with the victim. He wouldn't want to make his own work harder without him.Black: Are Conan and the victim coworkers? All it takes is for Conan and the victim to have met, where Conan gave the victim some poison drinks.Evelyn: It didn't say whether they are still working together. If the victim suddenly avoided him, Conan probably have not met the victim since.
๐ [34] Headquarters
StarTree: StarTree finds that Mr. Dragon is a beta tester of an online game called SON OF A SEAL where all the enemies are clones of the victim and the hero is a sniper who can also use poison!
StarTree: Dragon might have a motive!Ledia: His motive might not be strong enough for the trouble.Black: Think of it this way. You are at his home protecting Dragon. If it turns out that he is the murderer, the drumroll is going to show Ledia missing all the clues.Ledia: Very compelling.
๐ [95] Mr. Dragon
Ledia: "Why does [Diamond] think you owe him money?" asks Ledia. "We hired him to do voice-over but we couldn't use half of his mumbly [speech]," says Dragon. "And what did [the victim] think?" "Who knows? I haven't talked to him since he sold out to the military last month behind my back. Left me cold," says Dragon.
Ledia: If what he says is true, he now has a weak motive but not the opportunity.
๐ [174] Crime Scene
Zoey: At the crime scene, there is a total of four bottles of that energy drink. Three of them were toward the back in the refrigerator, the fourth one is the one found under the couch. Only the one under the couch has poison.
Zoey: The clue has a detective suggesting that someone inserted the poison bottle in front so the victim would get it first.Zoey: But I don't see how that is relevant unless the poison would self-destruct if it is in the cold for too long. Zoey: And for the murderer to place the poison drink in front, the murderer would have to be at the victim's apartment.Ledia: Would the girlfriend have the key?
๐ [216] Mr. Conan
James: James visits the shy and mumbling Conan following the lead from P4. Eventually the topic got to what exactly made him angry at the victim. "I showed him a new first-person shooter I developed," says Conan, "he promised me a big cut in a new project that he is working on, but he hasn't returned my emails for weeks now."
James: The clue card says the victim stole Conan's idea. But it didn't say for which game. James: I think it is safe to interpret that the military recruiter game "SEAL" is the game the victim is working on now, and the victim tricked Conan into showing his idea, but didn't give Conan a cut.
๐ [111] Victim's Girlfriend
Mikela: Hey hey hey! Rumor has it that the long distance girlfriend moved to town to be with the victim's father! Yes, they already know each other! The girlfriend prefers the kind father over his selfish son!
๐ [125] Victim's Boss Mr. Blake
Kisaragi: Kisaragi asks Mr. Blake about his car that is parked on his driveway, "Mr. Blake, we noticed that the rubber seal around your car window has deep scratches. Have your car been recently burglarized?" "Not that I know of," Mr. Blake says, and goes check his car, which has the scratch as described. Mr. Blake checks inside the car. On the car seat a six-pack of energy drink is missing two bottles. "I drank one on my way back. it looks like someone stole a bottle," says Mr. Blake.
Kisaragi: Mr. Conan has coat hangers for opening car doors.Ledia: The timing would be strange though. he would have to have stalked Blake, stole a bottle from his car, stalk the victim and put it in his house. Then one day ago, the victim drank that and died. So Blake hasn't driven or noticed for more than one day. Seems like a complicated murder.Black: But no one else has the poison.Ledia: You could probably buy the poison by itself without the frog.Evelyn: Just to clarify... It is not us who stole the bottle from Blake's car for the lab, is it? ๐Kisaragi: The clue did not say that any detective took the bottle. I think the clue meant to suggest the bottle under the victim's couch is from this six-pack that Mr. Blake bought.Zoey: But it would make sense if we stole it after seeing the NCIS show. XDSasha: I know, right?Sasha: Okay. No clue remaining for Round 3. Please return for Round 4, will the detectives do better than Tanya and Sasha?

A man has been enjoying his meal at a dinner party and had just started a delicious dessert. Why did he deliberately knock over the salt cellar into his dessert and ruin it?
44: He needs the container to put the dessert in?Mikela: Okay. I've decided that you do need the clues so the choices are relevant. So here are the clues...
๐ Clue 1: Status
Mikela: The man was hungry and would normally enjoy this dessert. He had started eating it. It tasted good, and he felt fine.
๐ Clue 2: Motive
Mikela: The man did not want to eat the dessert but didn't want to appear rude.
Evelyn: Is it something about his health? He enjoys it but he knows that it is unhealthy. In order to not appear rude, he ruins the dessert. ๐Mikela: I'll count that as one of the multiple candidate guesses.Casey: My guess is that the man wagered a bet with someone that he could stop himself from eating the dessert.Sasha: I think it is not about long term health but something he will do soon after. Such as he needs to drive and doesn't want to feel sleepy.LRRH: It is about the ingredient of the dessert that he has recently decided not to eat.Tanya: It is for a religious reason.Ledia: For those proposing new ideas, are you sure you would pick yours over what exists?
LRRH: I thought you don't have to pick your own guess.Mikela: No you don't!Ledia: But the player would need to read ALL of them to pick the closest one. More is not merrier.Evelyn: I'll make my guess shorter. ๐Mikela: I highlighted the keyword in each guess. That is the keyword that I will use to determine which guess is the closest.Evelyn: I think it helps a lot. ๐Ledia: Since you all came up with the guesses based on the clues, they are technically equally likely to be closest to the solution. The more choices you make the more risky it is for someone to choose.Ledia: Are you really going to risk your hit ratio on one of the guesses?Zoey: If I were to choose, I would probably choose A.Ledia: But will you? The chance of a hit is closer to 20%.Zoey: You are trying very hard to scare me and it is working. ๐คMikela: Well, this might be where true detective skill shows!Zoey: Or true cheating skill if you just Google the answer. XDP4: P4 thinks that guesses A, C, and D are similar. Could we get a WIN if the solution is closest to one of those?Ledia: That's not a bad idea if A, C, D are considered one choice, and B, E is considered the other. But you would need to confirm that it is grouped before people make a choice.
โญ
Sasha: Could we increase the reward somehow? The more choices there are, the more a win would worth.
Tanya: I think that would be too much like gambling.Tanya: How about the more guesses there are the smaller chance that a wrong guess would result in a loss? Casey: I could almost get behind that, but you mean if my guess is wrong, I have 1/5 chance of losing a whole point. So if I am unlucky, I could lose many more points than I should...Evelyn: I think that is still too much like gambling. ๐ LRRH: How about we track puzzle wins differently? With a different tag?Sasha: I am slightly against that because I think that win IS related to detective win. I just want to make it less risky.Ledia: How about we reveal more clue?Tanya: But then you are deliberately trying to eliminate guesses, which begs the question of why didn't we wait to create the choices.Ledia: But no one would intentionally create irrelevant guesses otherwise.
๐ก
LRRH: Little Red Riding Hood is detecting a discussion paralysis. We are discussing how not to lose points instead of discussing how to tell these guesses apart IF that is what we have to work with.
Sasha: I agree that this exercise should be more about challenging our detective skills than to provide a safe opportunity to grind detective XP.Mikela wishes all a wonderful day!

Zoey: Zoey checks the victim's apartment again but found no sign of break-in. "Who might have a key to the victim's apartment?" thinks Zoey.
Zoey: The murderer need not have a key if the victim invited them to his apartment. Ledia: Blake could have swapped the victim's drink at work. The victim brought it home.Evelyn: But how did he get the poison?Zoey: Amazon. XD
๐ฌ Detective Choices
Sasha: Okay. It is time to make your choices.
Ivy: Conan with poison frog.Zoey: Hold on, I have an idea. Maybe we should think about why Sasha and Tanya got it wrong.Ledia: That is a bit meta-gaming since they didn't have the benefit of that kind of clue.Evelyn: *sings*LRRH: Did we eliminate any suspect?Zoey: We didn't. XDIvy: No one else has the poison so far.Zoey: But we didn't reveal the last clue of any suspect. What if their last clue is a receipt of them buying poison? XDIvy: I don't think the game would give you both the means and opportunity in the last clue. Conan is only missing the opportunity, the other suspects are missing both means and opportunity.Kisaragi: The Victim's Boss is only missing the means.Zoey: If you assume that the girlfriend has a key, then she is only missing the poison.Ivy: I am skeptical on whether you could actually buy poison frog poison online.Ledia: They don't necessarily have to buy it online. Black: The girlfriend had only recently move to the victim's town. Where was she before in the "long distance" relationship?Zoey: Better not be Columbia! XDSasha: Please try to pick your suspect. If you don't pick a suspect, you are assumed to have picked the suspect you interviewed or take a loss. P4: P4 picks Conan also.Zoey: I pick Blake the boss. He has the best opportunity of swapping a bottle.Black: Blake has almost no motive, I think it is the girlfriend.Sasha: Everyone else except @Evelyn and @StarTree has a default suspect. Please choose.StarTree: StarTree follow Ivy, Wee~~!Evelyn: I suppose I will also follow my labmates. ๐ StarTree: *sings*Sasha: Three AA short of the first bonus clue. Those who haven't explicitly picked a suspect are James, Mikela, LRRH, 3B, Ledia, Kisaragi.Kisaragi: I pick Mr. Blake. I think we cannot explain the fingerprints on the bottle with the girlfriend.Ledia: That's true.Kisaragi: *sings*Ledia: @Black, how do you explain the fingerprints on the bottle?Black: I can't. *sings*Ledia: Conan has the poison frogs and coat hanger to get the bottle from Blake. Maybe he used coat hangers to get in the victim's apartment. I choose Conan.Ledia: *sings*Sasha: Bonus clue 1 is unlocked.Mikela: I follow the crowd. *sings*3B: I choose Conan also.LRRH: Little Red thinks the majority is probably right and chooses Conan.Sasha: The ones with bonus clue please pick the next clue to reveal and the choices will be set for those without a bonus.Black: I want to reveal the last clue of the girlfriend to see if she has a key or if she had recently been to the rain forest, or work in a zoo, a lab, or anything suspicious. So far we have only heard rumors about her.
โญ [190] Victim's Girlfriend
Bonus Clue 1
Black: Black tracks down the girlfriend at her new apartment and confirms that the rumors about her are true. "[The victim's father] believes in me," says the girlfriend, "He knows I was too good for his son. He even agrees that maybe I know more about game design than his greedy son and offered to bankroll me if I could prove it, just to show [his son] that he is expendable."
Black: To me this suggests that the father does not want to murder his son, since he has another way of getting back at him, and his finance is not in a dire situation. He still has enough to fund someone else.Black: I switch to Conan.Black: I also imagine that none of the suspects has a key to the victim's apartment. And since the Girlfriend might get bankrolled if she could help the father show his son, the girlfriend also has no motive to murder.Sasha: Anyone else switching? @Kisaragi?Kisaragi: I don't think that changes the situation about Blake.Ledia: What is your explanation about the scratch marks at Blake's car?Kisaragi: I cannot explain it.Kisaragi: I switch to Conan.Ledia: And Zoey?Zoey: Do I trust myself that I would be the only one correct? No. But I don't have AA. XDLedia: You could use mine.Zoey: Thank you, I switch to Conan. XDSasha: Okay! Drumroll!
๐ฅ [10] Victim's Father
Unused Round 3 Clue
LRRH: Little Red was interviewing the father, who believed that his son's business partner changed him. "That guy craves evil stuff and has no respect for anything," says the father, "I have only met him once, but I could tell right away that he was a bad influence. He caused my son to also think only about the money and power. After they became a big success, my son acted like he didn't owe me anymore. I don't know what I would do now if it wasn't for [the girlfriend]."
LRRH: I can't tell who is the bad influence.Ledia: I think that is Dragon. They made Dark Wonderland together.
๐ฅ [18] Victim's Father
Unused Round 4 Clue
LRRH: "[The girlfriend] was a caring friend of my son's. She encouraged him to succeed, but he broke her heart, just like how he broke his mother's heart and mine."
๐ฅ [82] Diamond the Mad Hatter
Round 3 unused clue
Black: "We also know that you served some time a while back for beating up a competitor in the ring. You almost killed him," says Black. "That was a long time ago and ended my career," says Diamond. "Are you still taking steroids?" asks Black, to which Diamond does not answer.
๐ฅ [22] Best Friend Mr. Ham
Round 4 unused clue
Black: Black returns to the question about the dropped lawsuit. "They threatened me," says Diamond, "They said that I won't get any chance for gigs like doing voice-over and autograph signings at comic conventions if I don't drop the changes. Look at me, I'm just a has-been. Those gigs are all I have left."
๐ฅ [41] Former partner Dragon
Unused Round 4 Clue
Ledia: Ledia tries as tackfully as she could to ask about the game where players kill the victim. "Yea? I made that game to mock him for screwing me over by joining fascist wannabe's," says Dragon, "It's just fantasy." "The poisoning part is a little real, don't you think?" "You mean he really got himself poisoned?" says Dragon with a devilish grin.
๐ฅ [207] Boss Blake
Unused Round 4 Clue
Kisaragi: "Who else knows about your fight with [the victim]?" asks Kisaragi. "Pretty much everyone involved in our project at work, why?" says Blake. Kisaragi notices that there is a tiny screw under the car door, and the side mirror is knocked almost sideways.
Kisaragi: I don't understand the significance.Ivy: Those might be what the burglar/murderer left on scene. We might match them with something. Please bag and tag.
๐ฅ [60] Conan with Poison Frogs
Unused Round 4 Clue
James: Speaking to Conan, James notices that one leg of his eyeglasses is held by tape. Jame asks, "Does that tape have a special meaning, it seems to be quite a signature look." "No, I just broke it yesterday bumping into a wall. I plan to get it fixed tomorrow," says Conan.
James: Conan dropped the tiny screw at Blake's car.Sasha: We'll see...!
๐๏ธ SOLUTION
Sasha: The murderer is Conan!
Motive: Conan is a genius game developer but with only one big hit under his belt. Desperate for the next hit to show that he is not a one-hit wonder, he signed over the rights to his revolutionary game idea to the victim after being offered a big cut, which didn't happen.
Means: Conan used poison from recently purchased poison frogs, and put that in a bottle of energy drink he stole from Blake's car.
Opportunity: Conan knew that he needs a fall guy for the murder and picked Blake after hearing about the public fight between him and the victim, and knew that both of them like that energy drink. So he decided to use poison and frame Blake. ** Note: The solution DOES NOT explain how Conan got the bottle of poison into the victim's refrigerator without leaving a trace. **
Sasha: Congratulations everyone! You all win!Sasha: So to answer the obvious question of why Tanya and I lost...Tanya: My idea was that regardless who has poisons, the murderer must get the poison to the victim. From the clues that we got, only the Girlfriend might have the means to do so.Sasha: At that time, we revealed almost no clue from the girlfriend or the father. We were betting on those clues to confirm one of them has a key to the victim's apartment. It was only a question between the girlfriend and the father, and we picked the girlfriend.Tanya: Another issue was that poison frogs in captivity are not poisonous. Since we did not know what clues are left for the girlfriend, we thought that the game was trying to mislead us to choose Conan, whose pet frogs would turn out to be non-poisonous.Zoey: OMG! The game was wrong. XDIvy: No, not if the frogs were captured from the wild, which seems to be what the solution claims. Wild poison frogs can retain their poison for years.Sasha: Anyway we were wrong, we were playing it quite quickly to judge whether the game is playable for the guild. We got characters and relationships confused. Ledia: How long did do you play?Sasha: Maybe an hour before bed.Evelyn: It is probably a lot harder playing it that way. ๐ Sasha: Anyway we will take the loss! Please return for the final case!

Sasha: A rising politician star is found floating face down in this swimming pool wearing only his boxer shorts.
Sasha: This is the last case in the NCIS game!Sasha: We will reveal all clues in Round 1 and Round 2, then six clues in Round 3, and only two clues in Round 4 not counting bonus clues.
๐ [284] Crime Scene
Zoey: When Zoey arrived, the press was already there, and the body was being put on a stretcher. According to Sasha, the victim's wife found the body.
Evelyn: The body looks unusually pale and there are... injection marks between his toes.
Evelyn: I don't understand the clue "injection marks between his toes". Does it really mean the webby tissue between the toes were punctured by a needle? ๐Zoey: We'll see whether they really mean that. XDMikela: So the guy is dead and what gets you are the needle holes?Evelyn: I'm sorry. ๐Zoey: Mikela is here. XDMikela: Mikela is already here as part of the press!
๐ [275] Headquarters
Evelyn: The victim has no water in the lungs, meaning he did not drown. Evelyn examines his heart and concludes that the vicitim died of a cardiac arrest. Then she examines the multiple injection marks between his toes.
Evelyn: The murder weapon might be a shoe with needles. ๐Zoey: XDZoey: If you feel needles poking you in your shoes, would you strip down do your underwear and jump into a pool? XDEvelyn: You are right, I'll continue the autopsy. ๐ Ledia: If those are injection holes, I think maybe the murder did it there because they thought the medical examiner might not find them.
๐ [231] Victim's Wife
Kisaragi: "Sorry for you loss," says Kisaragi. The wife snorts as she continues to pour a glass of scotch. "Do you know of anyone who might have wished your husband harm?" asks Kisaragi. "To be honest, I think he killed himself," the wife slurs, "He was hardly a man anymore. They always seem to self-destruct. Why couldn't he be more of a real man like Hatchet?"
๐ [253] Victim's hatchet man
LRRH: Little Red visits Mr. Hatchet at his home. Mr. Hatchet has bumps all over his face. "Don't worry. It is not contagious, just the meds," says Mr. Hatchet. "Mr. Hatchet, do you know who might have wished [the victim] harm?" asks Little Red.
๐ฉ [12] Victim's commanding officer
Mikela: Hey hey hey! The absolutely true rumor has it that the victim, as a Reservist, has a commanding officer, Candy, who has a grudge against him. The victim kept putting him down in front of others, and Candy whines about the victim being a phony who joined the Reservist only to further his political career!
Zoey: Mikela has good skill for this game, when a clue says something the detectives shouldn't know. XD
๐ฎ [151] Wealthy Industrialist
P4: P4 is practicing oracle skill with mom. What do you see, P4? P4 sees a wealthy man throwing his leather shoe at the TV. The man said something, what did he say, P4? "[The victim] was the dumbest of the bunch. We could have made a fortune together on the government building contract, Now I'm out at least $200 mil. Why did he break his promise? And now look at him."
P4: This man has shoes.Zoey: No way! The murder shoes! XDZoey: Jokes aside, I don't think he is the murderer because he wants money and is hoping that the victim will give him another opportunity or make it up to him.
๐ [209] Victim's operative
Tanya: Scanning the scene, Tanya sees the person most shocked by the murder. @StarTree, ID this blonde please.
StarTree: Ms Polly, 24, Compaign operative of the victim. She helped get the victim elected and is working for his re-election!
Ledia: I know we will reveal all clues, but why would you pay attention to someone who is shocked? Do you think she is faking it?Tanya: A murderer can be shocked if their murder attempt ended up killing the wrong person.Ledia: Compelling. Zoey: You can't die from stepping on needles, so we are looking for poisons again. Arrest the chemist. XD

"You have done more than I could ever ask," replies the pastor, "why not relax and enjoy today's sermon?" Peers looks out into the church with a melancholy expression.

Sasha: Two things: First, Mr. Peers has been caught trespassing the victim's property. Second...
Evelyn: The victim died of heroin overdose.
๐ [191] Crime Scene
Zoey: In the woods surrounding the victim's house, Zoey finds burnt remnants of a military unform with a name tag and a medal.
๐ [235] Headquarters
Evelyn: The scrapes on the victim's back suggest that he was dragged to the pool.
Ivy: There is blood residue on the medal found in the woods. The owner of that blood is still being determined.
๐ [62] Peers, Political Rival
Natalie: After catching Peers trespassing, Natalie obtained a warrant to search Peers' house. On his answering machine is massage from an angry businessman.
๐ [136] Commanding Officer
Black: Black visits the Commanding Officer at the reservist base to verify Mikela's report. "[The victim] and I had another argument the last time I saw him. He was late from lunch, so I wrote him up. He stormed out with a strange woman. That's all I know." Black checks the visitor log, which shows two recent visitors: Polly the campaign operative, and Stars the Businessman.
๐ [182] Businessman
Ledia: Ledia asks the Businessman at his office, "Why did you visit [the victim] so many times on the Reservist base?" "I'm a supporter of his campaign," says the Businessman, "everyone knows that." "Then why did you leave that disparaging mdssage on Peers's answering machine?" The Businessman looks shaken, "Okay, I was losing fatih in [the victim], thinking about switching to Peers." Ledia notices blood on the Businessman's sleeve.
Ledia: Apparently, the answering machine message was the businessman being angry at the victim, not Peers. The Businessman doesn't have a motive to murder.Zoey: If Tanya is right, the victim's campain operator has a motive to kill the Businessman so he cannot support the rival. Somehow the murder goes wrong and her client is dead instead.Tanya: That doesn't explain the burnt military uniform.Zoey: The uniform could be burnt to cover up something else.
๐ [126] Polly, Campaign Operator
Tanya: "It's all my fault..." the campaign operator repeats as Tanya approaches her. "[The victim] might have become the President one day," sobs Polly, "but not with a wife like [the victim's wife]. I failed to convince him to leave her."
Tanya: Polly seems to have a bigger motive on killing the wife than the victim.
๐ [85] Hatchet
LRRH: "Are you serious? Who wouldn't wish [the victim] harm? He was among the best backstabbers. After the campaign, it quickly became obvious that I was next to be backstabbed. Hell, even I want to kill him for owing me half a million. For services rendered, so to speak,"says Hatchet. "Did you kill him?" asks Little Red. "I'm not that stupid. Not when there is still a chance of getting my money."
๐ [243] Wife
Kisaragi: "Of course I knew about my husband's dirty little secret," says the wife, "Everyone did. But kept quiet because they liked him." Kisaragi asks the wife where the victim was before he came home. "He spent the day at base playing pretend soldier again."
Kisaragi: It was not entirely clear from the clue what the "secret" is. I think the secret is that the victim was a known heroine user.Ledia: No drug test on base?Zoey: I've just looked it up that injecting betwen toes is a known way to use heroine without being obvious. Ledia: Too bad the victim is not a suspect.Zoey: I think drug test is supposed to be random.Sasha: Okay! Things should get more interesting in Round 3 when we have to let go of two clues!
No Stupid Question the podcast will do a series on the seven deadly sins and is asking the listeners for a suggestion of an 8th.
3B: It seems like something we would be interested in suggesting. What do you think?
โญ
Zoey: I looked up 8th deadly sin and found there was an eighth: despair/despond. Which is cynicism, hopelessness, "what difference would that do?"
Tanya: @StarTree please make a node titled "Virtues".StarTree:202301161040|Done!Tanya: The four cardinal virtues are: Fortitude, Justice, Prundence, Temperance. I want to see their relation to the 7 or 8 deadly sins.
Zoey: The eight evil thoughts are: gluttony, lust, avarice, anger, sloth, sadness, vainglory and pride.
Evelyn: For the seven vices there are seven virtues on the other end.
โญ
Tanya: I see some pairs, Envy and Lust, Pride and Gluttony, Sloth and Greed, Despair and Wrath
Connection: Evny makes a person distant others, Lust makes them seek others.
Possession: Sloth is a person giving up on what they want, Greed is wanting too much.
Justice: Despair is giving up on justice. Wrath is overexcertion of justice.
Knowledge: Pride is ignorance of one's weaknesses. Gluttony is ignorance of one's strength.
Zoey: They don't align that well.
Tanya: Maybe we can fix them so that they are aligned and orthogonal.Evelyn: I like the idea of aligning them, then we only have 4 things to remember. The other eight are either too much or too little.LRRH: How about six things in the middle? So far we have six elements. โ๏ธ๐๐ณ๐ฅ๐งฑโ๏ธLedia: I can see Connection as ๐, Possession as ๐ณ, Justice as ๐ฅ, Knowledge as โ๏ธ. What would be โ๏ธ and ๐งฑ?Black: I think Connection is solidarity, so it is ๐งฑ. ๐ is goodwill. Having too little is selfishness. Having too much is guilt/self-sacrifice. According to our 202211271009|Solutions.Ledia: Then โ๏ธ is freedom. Too little is intolerance, too much is recklessness.Evelyn: If they map nicely, should Virtue and Magic Elements be the same node?Tanya: Let's keep them separate for now and only cross-reference.Tanya: Are the six axes distinct? Connection, Possession, Justice, Knowledge, Goodwill, Freedom.
Ledia: The concepts are hard to map because the solution of a vice may not have a virtue solution in the same element.Evelyn: Maybe we should assign an element to each virtue and vice first, then decide how to show which is a solution of which.Evelyn: Should we nominate despair as the 8th deadly sin?
LRRH: Yes, because it was the 8th deadly sin.LRRH: How is despair different from pride and lust?Tanya: A person in despair does not boast about their achievements.Evelyn: Someone in despair tends to think they don't deserve love.LRRH: Grammarly rates the email sad. I hope that if they talk about that the effect would be empowering and bring people out of despair.Little Red thanks all for the discussion.
A vice and the virtue that resolves it may not belong to the same elemental group. This node attempt to assign an element to each and show their relations.

Zoey: Zoey finds the tape of the security cameras at the basement of the victim's home, but the tape is blank.
Ivy: A fingerprint on the tape matches the wife.
Sasha: Friendly reminder: only six clues to be revealed in this round. Ledia: I think none of the male suspects are as supcious as the female suspects.
๐ [259] Crime Scene
Zoey: Zoey knows that she needs to find the needle or the stash of heroin, but it would be a litte difficult without Red's dog. "Maybe I would start at somewhere convenient if the victim was an addict." Zoey goes to the victim's home office and starts opening every drawer at his desk. At the bottom drawer is a needle with residue white powder. "That was easy."
๐ [77] Wife
Kisaragi: The Wife refuses to answer why her fingerprint was on the tape. "If you won't tell us why you replaced the tape, we have a warrant to search your house." "Go ahead," slurs the Wife, "you will find it very clean." Kisaragi notices that the wife has a hickey on her neck, and finds contraceptive in her car.
๐ [221] Headquarters
Ivy: The blood on the medal matches the businessman. The needle from the victim's desk has fingerprints of the victim, the wife, and someone else I haven't identified.
๐ [172] Polly, Campaign Operator
Tanya: "What did you have against [the wife]?" "[The wife] is holding [the victim] back by her indiscretions. She is driving him to... spiral downward. He wasn't thinking straight anymore. All he wanted me for anymore was... He was going to end up dragging me down with him. That's what [the wife] does to people."
Tanya: I think Polly could be talking about heroin addiction.Ledia: "All he wanted me for any more was..." wouldn't make sense unless Polly is a heroin supplier to the victim. Unless she meant the wife was cheating and so the victim started cheating with her.
๐ [202] Businessman
Ledia: The businessman admits that he had a fight over the victim's broken promises. During the fight, he cut his arm on the victim's medal. He says, "But he was fine when I left him."
Tanya: Hatchet has a motive. If the wife is cheating with him, he could get his money after the wife takes his wealth.Sasha: You are at the last clue for Round 3.
๐ [100] Hatchet
LRRH: "What do you mean by services redered?" asks Little Red. "Destroying people's lives, of course," says Hatchet, "Peers was having an affair, so we went public with it. He plunged 20 points. Conservative district loves their family values."
LRRH: I don't feel strongly about who might or might not be a murderer.Zoey: We need more clues. Might as well get a head start. XD *sings*
This is a 202301011739|new game where we discuss what the law ought to be in each situation drawn from a deck of cards meant to be reviewed by law students.
Natalie: Is Panarcadia / Stewardism / Arcacnaism law the same as the status quo in each situation?
Natalie: Hey everyone, I have a deck of criminal law flash cards if you want to play it like a game.
Casey: How do you play it?Natalie: Each card has a question, the answer is in the back. For example, card #173 asks, "What is an 'affirmative defense'?"Zoey: I have no idea, but I am interested in learning.Tanya: I think if most of us don't know the terms, we should just quickly review them until we see something we can answer or debate about.Evelyn: That would certainly save us some time blindly guessing.Sasha: It could be fun to guess. Once you know it, you can't guess. I vote for let's blindly guess.Ledia: If it is a game, are we keeping score? I think we can track points in a similar way as Detective XP, but on a different category, because this is more like philosophical knowledge. Sasha: Philosophy XP?LRRH: You can already get Guild XP from adding philosophy concept to the blog.Ledia: You could add PXP to Guild XP.LRRH: @StarTree can that be done?StarTree: If you want to!LRRH: Okay, so your contribution can get a PXP tag in the blog if it adds a philosophical concept, such as adding a definition.Ledia: So, in this case, whoever adds the definition of "affirmative defense" to the blog gets one PXP.LRRH: Yes.Sasha: Can we still guess?
[173] Affirmative Defense
Natalie: [173] What is an Affirmative Defense?
P4: Is it when you admit what you did, but defend it by saying you did it for a good reason?Natalie: P4 is almost correct! It is not about breaking the law "to do good." It is a defense that you did it with an excusable reason, such as you were forced, insane, or not fully conscious. Natalie: P4 and I both get one P XP.P4: ๐
[175] Non-deadly Force
Natalie: [175] Under what circumstance may one use non-deadly force to defend oneself?
Casey: Isn't it always? as long as your force is necessary to stop the harm?Natalie: Casey is correct! And the answer adds the important detail that the defender must be without fault. That means you must not be the aggressor.Casey and Natalie receive
[176] Defending third party
Natalie: [176] What amount of force may a stranger use in defending a third person against attack by another?
Black: Same as defending oneself except you have to make a reasonably good judgment that the person you are defending is the victim.Natalie: Correct!
[177] Reasonable Belief
Natalie: [177] What are the elements of "reasonable belief" that a particular danger exists?
Sasha: That no one is in charge and the objects that can make the danger happen are on scene?Natalie: The answer is more subjective: 1) The defendant believed a danger existed, and 2) their belief was reasonable. The factors to consider include the victim's knowledge of agressor's reputation for violence; aggressor's threats or physical superiority; victim's experiences bearing on the honesty of his belief as to danger, such as situations where they has been in danger before.Natalie: Last question for today:
[183] Deadly Force
Natalie: [183] Indiana Jones has long despised Abdul Cadabra. One day, Abdul advances toward Indy, brandising a large knife in a threatening manner. Indy reasonably believes Abdulis going to kill him. Thrilled to finally have the opportunity to kill Abdul, Indy pulls out a gun and shoots Abdul. When Indy is tried, will his self-defense claim fail because he wanted to kill Abdul?
Tanya: No. Intention is irrelevant. Attacker is at fault.Natalie: Correct!
Evelyn: I like this session even though I didn't answer any of them. Natalie: I leave the deck if you want to study.Natalie thanks all for playing!

This is Magic Bakery Plays NCIS, Case 9 Plot Twist 4! The game content is rated "Age teen to adult" โ ๏ธ
๐จ PLOT TWIST 4
Black: The victim's commanding officer confessed that he knew about his heroin habit.
Mikela: According to rumors, his supplier is one of our suspects if you want to talk to her.
Sasha: Only two free clues in this round! This is the last case of this game, let's nail it!Ledia: Previously, Polly the campaign operator said the victim only needs her for 'something'. Tanya guessed that she was talking about heroin. Maybe Polly wanted to kill the wife, but the victim took the strong dose himself.Black: Don't you think it would be a huge scandal if the politicial's wife dies from drug overdose?Ledia: Maybe she supplies to Peers also. But the main point is the victim mistook the ultra dosage.Tanya: We need physical evidence connecting Polly to the needle.
๐ [215] Campagin Operative Polly
Tanya: Tanya could not get Polly to talk further about how the victim got the drug. "She won't talk," says Tanya to the channel, "she is asking for an attorney.
Tanya: I'm sorry. This clue is a dud.Ledia: Are we safe to assume that the wife is not the supplier? Her role in the story seems to be she just cheated.Tanya: I would agree.Ivy: May I reveal the HQ clue?
๐ [248] Headquarters
Ivy: The condom from the wife's car contains semen with blood. A person treating that with a tetracycline prescription might break out in bumps when they go outside.
Ivy: This is physical evidence linking Hatchet to the crime scene. Presummably everyone knows where the victim puts his needle, so...Ivy: Hatchet has all three: motive, means, opportunity.Ivy: I would want to reveal Hatchet's last clue in case he has an alibi.Sasha: Okay. Let's start the discussion section!
๐ฌ Detective Choices
Sasha: Detectives, it's time to make your choices.
Natalie: Hatchet. *sings*Sasha: Friendlly reminder that the detective level requires both a hit and ideas. You may get an idea point by filling out the detective notes.Natalie: Thanks!Ivy: Hatchet.LRRH: Hatchet.Black: Hatchet. I think the wife removed the tape because she wants to hide the murderer. I don't think she would remove the tape if the murderer is anyone but Hatchet.Ledia: Very compelling.Kisaragi: Why wouldn't she be removing the tape to hide herself as the murderer?Black: If we take her words for it, she was not on scene. Her last clue might be her alibi. I also think that she might be too drunk or too weak to move the body.Ledia: I think the wife hasn't lied yet.Zoey: Too drunk to lie, but awake enough to shut up. XDZoey: Hatchet.Sasha: Hatchet.P4: HatchetKisaragi: Hatchet. *sings*Tanya: Hatchet.Evelyn: Hatchet.P4:{"cmd":"pl","yt":"88KIy8C66VM","desc":"*sings with Evelyn*"}Zoey: XDLedia: HatchetStarTree: @MikelaSasha: *sings*Ledia: What happens if as a group we have 12 AA but only P4 has two AA?Sasha: Then two bonus clues are revealed before anyone needs to decide whether to switch.Mikela: Hatchet!LRRH: *sings*StarTree: StarTree is still waiting for her turn to sing. ๐ญZoey: It turns into karaoke! XDStarTree: Hatchet *sings*Sasha: Okay! We can discuss who to reveal for bonus clue 2 after revealing Hatchet's last clue.
โญ [239] Hatchet
Bonus Clue 1
LRRH: "Where did you get the evidence on Peers?" asks Little Red. "We had a signed affidavit from the campagin worker he was [with]." "Do you have a copy?" "Sure," says Hatchet, who unhesitantly opens a drawer with three important pieces of evidence which Little Red is too short to see.
LRRH: The evidence inside the drawer are a VDR tape, a photograph of the wife, and a bottle of Tetracyn.Zoey: Thanks for telling. XDSasha: So. Do we care which clue to reveal next? Or just start Drumroll?Zoey: I'll sweep the crime scene XD
โญ [81] Crime Scene
Bonus Clue 2
Zoey: Zoey does a final sweep of the crime scene and finds nothing other than an agent from another agency who seems to be flirting with the wife. "I'm sure that is his rapport techniqe," Zoey hopes.
Sasha: Sasha sees an older agent smacks that agent's head on the back. Zoey: XDSasha: Drumroll!
๐ฅ [187] Commanding Officer
Unused Round 3 Clue
Black: The commanding officer says he argues with the victim all the time, and admits that he knows about the victim's heroin habit, but higher-ups pressured him to keep quiet.
๐ฅ [218] Commanding Officer
Unused Round 4 clue
Black: "I understand why you couldn't report him," says Black, "at least he is not around to embarrass you anymore." "Yes, there is that," the commanding officer sneers.
๐ฅ [38] Businessman
Unused Round 4 clue
Ledia: Ledia presses on the fight about the burnt clothing with a bluff that they caught him on security camera. "Look, I admit to have burned his clothes, but I didn't kill him," said the Businessman, "I hit him, he was fine when I left. Then I returned to resolve the issue. He was dead and I panicked. So I removed his clothes and burned them to hide the blood."
๐ฅ [94] Wife
Unused Round 4 Clue
Kisaragi: The wife would not answer whether she was having an affair.
๐ฅ [27] Political Rival
Unused Round 3 Clue
Natalie: Peers appears not to have heard the message that the businessman left him on his answering machine.
๐ฅ [54] Political Rival
Unused Round 4 Clue
Natalie: After listening to the message, Peers says, "[The businessman] would back anyone who supports his big project. [The victim] broke his promises after he got elected, so [the businessman] and I started talking about him supporting my comeback." "Why did you go to [the victim's] house?" asks Natalie. "I was there only to watch and report what I saw to [the businessman] as a return of favor."
Sasha: Everyone ready? More than ready? Here we go with the solution!
๐๏ธ SOLUTION
Sasha: The murderer is... ๐ฑ
Sasha: Hatchet!!
Sasha: It scared me a little because I forgot his actual name in the game.Zoey: XDMotive: The victim owes Hatchet money, and might backstab him. Hatchet wants to take out the victim and give the wife and himself a better life.
Means: He injected an overdose of heroin to the victim at a golden opportunity...
Opportunity: The businessman punched the victim unconscious and left. Hatchet took that opportunity to inject an overdose. Then the businessman returned and found the victim dead. The businessman stripped the body and dragged it into the pool. Hatchet convinced the drunken wife to remove the video tape.
Sasha: A detail is that Polly the campaign operative is not the "supplier" of heroin. She just helps the victim run the errands to physically get the drug. And, apparently the businessman sent Peers, the political rival to spy the victim's house so the detectives would suspect him instead!Ledia: Sending the political rival to spy is not a very smart move.Tanya: So was stripping the body.Sasha: Congratulations! Everyone wins!Sasha: So I was planning to complete the detective XP tally since case 1 so we have a complete Tally for Magic Bakery Plays NCIS, then we can take a screenshot for the record.Sasha: Before accounting for hit ratio for Puzzle Plaza or the next game.Sasha: So please wait. It shouldn't take too long.Sasha: And it is done! Zoey takes the final lead at Level 8! Cheers!
Hoarding refers to an observable behavior of collecting large quantities of the same item. (Tanya: Compared to a Collector who has a large variety, typically of small quantities, of different items of the same category.)
This definition does not imply that the hoarder has a mental disorder or that their behavior has an ill effect on themselves or others.
๐ Equivalent Statements
Statement 1a
"I saw Ann buying large quantities of toilet paper from each store."
is the same as:
Statement 1b
"I saw Ann hoarding toilet paper."
Tanya: If the term "hoarding" implies wrongdoing, the observer would not qualify to say statement 1b unless buying large quantities of toilet paper is wrong, or they know Ann does so for a malicious purpose.
๐ Included Behavior
๐งฑ Possession
Collecting for self, not sharing, not using.
Tanya: Here I am talking about the situation when a person collects many of the same item for themself, as opposed to making a profit. If the item has a use, the hoarder may collect them without using them.
๐งฑ Emergency Stockpile
Collecting the item to prepare for emergency.
๐ณ Profit
Collecting the item in order to profit from selling it later.
๐ฅ Price Gouge
Collecting the item in order to profit from selling it at a time when people will need it badly.
๐ฅ Artificial Scarcity
Collecting the item in order to create scarcity in order to make a profit.
๐ Excluded Behavior
โ๏ธ Appreciation
Collecting the item to preserve or appreciate. Tanya: The usual hobby of collecting stamps is not an example of hoarding when the collector only collects one or a few or each stamp. But collecting boxes of the same stamp is a sign of possessive hoarding.

I plan to do only three cards today. Please note that this game is conducted from a philosophical standpoint. The answers are not meant to be representative of all jurisdictions.
Natalie: Please be aware that the content of some examples may not be appropriate for children.
[174] Defense type
Natalie: What "types of defenses are duress and necessity, justifications or excuses?
Evelyn: It is an excuse.Natalie: โ Correct for Duress. What about Necessity?Casey: Justification.Natalie: โ Correct!
[178] Retreat
Natalie: When one is attacked with deadly force, must one retreat, if possible, instead of using deadly force in self-defense?
Casey: Well, based on that Tanya answered earlier, you don't. You may stand your ground.Natalie: โ Correct!
[179] Justification vs excuse โ ๏ธ
Natalie: Alexandra stabs Rasputin as he is about to ravish her. Is the killing justifiable, or is it excusable?
Zoey: I think that should be an excuse. Taking out a bad guy does not "produce" net social utility. It only prevents the attacker's harm to Alexandra's individual utility.Natalie: โ It is justifiable, since it was necessary to prevent her rape and Alexandra was exercising her legal right of self-defense.Zoey: First wrong. XDNatalie: You still get one point.Zoey: Please give me one more question. XD
[182] Self-Defense
Natalie: Juliet is pregnant. Romeo walks up to her with a knife and tells her, "once you have the baby, I'm going to kill you." Juliet pulls out a gun and shoots him. Can Juliet defend on self-defense grounds?
Zoey: No, because the threat is not imminent.Fina: It is a declaration of war if you tell someone you want to kill them. It doesn't matter whether they say they will kill you today or a year from now. You don't have a responsibility to remember when they say they will effect the harm. If they ring the bell, then it is a go. Zoey: But the deadly force section says it has to be imminent.Fina: I disagree and I stand my ground.Natalie: The answer from the card is that the threatened force must be imminent. When the threat refers to the future, then physical violence is not necessarily.Natalie: The card does not say so, but making a death threat is a crime by itself. The threat maker is liable, but not warranted to receive deadly force yet.Fina: I disagree. Deadly force is justified once as aggressor declares their malicious intention. At that point, by reciprocation, they have created an arena where deadly force is legal in their law, therefore, reciprocative deadly force becomes lawful. They rang the bell on an infinite stage. The game is on. Tanya: I agree with Fina. We need to highlight that difference between Reciprocative Justice Laws and the Status Quo Laws.Natalie: Zoey and Fina both get 1 point. But I am out of time today to contrast the two. If someone wants to reformat the node to show the contrast, please do so.

It's time for self-evaluation. What do you think of your performance and achievement?
[A1] Completing Quests On Time
โญ
Tanya: Compared to last year, we now have MAP that helps track quest schedules. MAP allows us analyze a quest and sum the estimated quest hours needs for subquests. Using that we compmleted most quests on time with some exceptions.
Exception 1: We got some TPKs that required rework.
Tanya: Dawn Island was a major example.Exception 2: We are prone to schedule delay if we misunderstand the intent.
Tanya: Dawn Island was again an example, although the impact was not significant this time.Countermeasure: To prevent both exception, we added checks to the checklist.
Evelyn: I think in the case of Fort Arsenal, we would not be on time if the region was less tolerant. ๐ Sasha: MAP doesn't track whether we are on time. Maybe it should. Now we can't really tell which quests were on time.Tanya: True.
[A2] Instructions for Others
Black: This part is about how well we inform others what to do with what we make.
Evelyn: I think we could have better descriptions. ๐ Zoey: It is hard to describe when we barely know how it works. XDEvelyn: For improvement, I think the MAP and the Checklist help prevent missing content in documentation.
[A3] Internal Documentation
Tanya: For internal documentation we kept different versions of the scrolls with comments so they are easier to merge.
Ledia: That was helpful.Evelyn: We also added a lot to the Field Notes.
[A4] Field Support
Evelyn: I think we are doing okay, but Vladanya is doing much more.Tanya: Yes.
[A5] Update training manuals
Evelyn: Most of our training material are in Field Notes. I think we added information, but not training material.Tanya: I think we should have a process/habit of creating training material.Zoey: It seems like a chore to copy content from Field Notes to the "Training Section."Tanya: We can think more on what to put there.

This is for Part 2 of performance review.
[B1] Reporting
Tanya: We completed reports in timely manner.
Zoey: It was mostly Tanya doing all of them. XD
[B2] Teamwork
Black: Did you use interpersonal skills and work methods to complete quests successfully?Evelyn: I think we didn't do well for death valley. We had multiple rework.
[B3] Communication and Relations
Evelyn: We were late for regular meetings. Now the default setting of reminders have changed from 15 minutes to 30 minutes.
[B4] Initiative
Black: Did you put effort beyond expectation? Did you identify issues and act proactively?Tanya: I don't think we did anything beyond.Evelyn: I think MAP counts as something beyond primary quest, and Failure Analysis.
[B5] Training
Evelyn: I don't think we missed any training.
[B6] Dependability
Evelyn: I think our quest time tracking has improved.
[B7] Task Knowledge
Tanya: We have been adding to Field Notes as we learn something new.
Black: How many pages are on Field Notes now? We could just mention it so next time we have a comparison.Black: It is better with numbers.StarTree: Field Notes is 279 pages long!Black: We should try to have numbers for all of the evaluation items. I plan to add a New Year Resolution item for evaluation.Evelyn: I think we can show hours we spent supporting in the last year.Sasha: But more support is not better.Evelyn: I think it shows we did something.Tanya: @StarTree, how many hours did we spend on support in 2022?StarTree: Support: 297 hours, Field: 23 hours!
[C1] Overall Performance Review Results
Evelyn: I think the biggest changes are MAP and CHK in 2022.
Sasha: Were they new in 2022? I thought we had them for longer.Tanya: You started the Word based schedule for Deer Crossing. In 2022. MAP came after that to replace what you made.Evelyn: The checklist was newer than MAP.Sasha: Okay. I just can't believe they were so recent.Evelyn: We didn't follow up on the plan for 2022. ๐Black: We can do it this year, as part of NYR.Evelyn: I am glad that we have the NYR section. I think that section is more guilding than the Pinned section.Evelyn: But I also like the pinned section becasuse we save that so we can review what we did in each month.Sasha: Although seeing @Manga lagging in NYR is a little depressing.Evelyn: ๐Tanya: I think we should also mention the Quiver. Then we will know for sure that we started before 2023.Evelyn: Yes, the Quiver is convenient also.Sasha: I agree that the Quiver has some untapped potentials.Black: I think it is good for the review of 2022. I will add the NYR, but I am not sure if there is a one per person limit for NYR.LRRH: I would encourage someone else to take charge to spread out the load.Tanya: I already have failure analysis.Tanya: This is performance review, we will probably be discussing metrics and rubrics, and how to upgrade documentations to keep count.Zoey: This sounds like things that StarTree will do to be honest.Evelyn: What if StarTree wants to do something else? ๐ Black: I know StarTree did something really powerful for the current Japanese Learning NYR. Maybe I could do this and have StarTree head the Japanese NYR.LRRH: @StarTree?StarTree: StarTree takes over the Japanese NYR!Sasha: To be fair, I think the avatar should be whoever did the most contribution toward that NYR. So "Monthly backup" should be StarTree ALSO.Sasha: Since she did ALL of it.StarTree: Wee~~!LRRH: Yes, I think that is better. So Black will head Guild NYR for performance review, which is still closest to @Whale.LRRH: StarTree will head the monthly backup NYR.LRRH: StarTree will also take Japanese Lyrics NYR.StarTree: Roger!

Sasha: It seems that there might not be a limit on youtube hits.
Sasha: After removing "Arcacianism" on Mirror of Dreams, it is no longer listed. Now I put back "Arcacianism" at Mirror of Dreams title to see if it will become a search hit again later.
Tanya: Ethics is often said to be values that a society sees to be right, while moral refers to values a person actually believes to be right.
Tanya: For example, if a person chooses not to do something just to avoid being seen doing something wrong, then the person is referred to as ethical but not moral (since they would do it if they know no one would be watching).Zoey: In this definition, what is the difference between ethical and legal?
Tanya: There might not be a law against each behavior that is unethical, and there could be bad laws that are unethical.Ledia: There are at least three groups: Moral, Ethical, Lawful.Evelyn: I think in general we should use a definition that others will understand.
Tanya: @StarTree please make an Ethics node.StarTree:202301242209|Done!Tanya: There is now a section asking for reasons unethical behaviors remain lawful.
Tanya: Filling it up is worth PXP.LRRH: I have a somewhat off-topic idea.
LRRH: Why don't we call "PXP" "CXP"? C can stand for concept.Tanya: And P stands for Philosophy. Isn't that equivalent?LRRH: But we have DXP for Detective XP. If we start from letter A, we could have A for Aracacia Award XP, B for Blog XP, C for Concept XP, and D for Detective XP.Tanya: I see. I don't have a preference one way or the other.LRRH: @StarTree could you rename all PXP to CXP?StarTree: Done!Tanya: The next section asks for reasons that something considered immoral remains ethical.
Ledia: Are there any reasons other than people don't have the same morals?Zoey: I would add Bandwagon effect. People adopt a society's ethics and laws as their own values.Ledia: Are we going to see a scoreboard for CXP like DXP?Tanya: I hope so.StarTree: StarTree plans to work on that in February!Ledia: I think that upgrade would qualify for @Arena, @Dungeon, @Seed, @Guild, @Board, and even @Mira.Tanya: I think that should be based in @Seed.Ivy: It would just be a node. You could link to it from anywhere.Ledia: I might do just that tomorrow.
Ethics refer to values a society considers to be good.
๐ Ethical vs Lawful
A society tends to define all ethical behavior lawful. But unethical behaviors are not necessarily unlawful. Reasons unethical behavior remain lawful include the following.
๐งฑ Corruption
When laws are passed to protect special interests in the expense of common wealth.
๐ Delay
Sometimes laws just take time to pass careful considerations.
๐ฅ Preventing Loophole
A law might not pass if it creates opportunities for abuse.
๐ Moral vs Ethical
Moral refers to values a person believes and uses to judge right from wrong. Ethics of a society often reflects the majority moral of its people. However there could be situations where the two do not align. The followings are some reasons.
โ๏ธ Different Morals
Different people may have incompatible morality.
๐งฑ Bandwagon Effect
People tend to adopt the majority vew (ethics) for themselves.
๐ณ Tradition
People might hold on to traditions that they would determine to be immoral had they reviewed logically.

Black: So here is a decision point: Do we go ahead and order a compatible model? Or do we look for a cheap used one?Casey: I think we should look first for a used one.Evelyn: Is the purpose of getting another router to save the traffic history as evidence?Sasha: Yes.StarTree: According to our router manual, the history should have local IP, MAC address, and timestamp at its event log!James: The notice was for an event in December. There is a good chance that the log still has the event.Evelyn: What were we doing on that date?StarTree: 3B was using the tablet to draw Chapter 16 Page 10! Sasha: So: Action Item: Look for a modem to swap. If we don't find a suitable used replacement today, we order one, preferably the exact same model so we can see exactly what information is available.Black: Agreed.Tanya: We should get a node for this quest. @StarTree please make a node.StarTree: Is this not Magic Bakery Plays NCIS Case 10?Tanya: I think it should have its own node. Sasha might link to it from the NCIS node if she wants.Sasha: Please make a separate node.StarTree:202301280946|Done!

Casey: I couldn't find a suitable modem/router. Those models are too old.

๐ Case Folder
โญ
Ivy: I am starting a master folder for this quest.
Black: Did the complaint specifically mention BitTorrent?Ivy: Yes. "downloading and distributing [...] to others, using BitTorrent protocol."
๐ Case File Research
โญ
Tanya: I reviewed some case opinions. Most of them are for default judgment, meaning where the defendant did not respond. It seems that the plaintiff (the copyright holder) needs more than the IP and the subscriber's identity for the case. In some cases, the plaintiff cross checks with the defendant's interest at social media.
Tanya: Apparently how it works is that the copyright holder scans for torrent traffic of their film. They can see the IP address that is downloading or distributing it. Then they subpoena the subscriber of that IP from the ISP. Once they have the name, they do more research (discovery) to confirm that the subscriber is also the infringer. Or in some cases they identify someone else with access to that IP as the infringer. Then they amend the court case with the actual name of the defendant.Tanya: If the copyright holder gets a name, they would check the suspect's social media to see if they seem to have interest in their work.
โญ Quest XP
โญ
Ledia: I think we need a better way to account for Quest XP. We know the lightbulb Dective XP is not added to the overall XP, but if we are doing quest work, we should be getting XP. I propose QXP to be the generic tag for Quest XP that counts toward the overall XP.
Sasha: I agree.Casey: I also agree. We get XP for each Cardinal Quest task, but when it comes to guild tasks, using the log is inconvenient. Sasha: So far I am giving Merit to each credit worthy task, but you can only get one merit per day. That isn't quite enough.LRRH: Could we make something like the lightbulb but with a QXP tag?Sasha: I can make bubbles with a star โญ to tag QXP.Ledia: And you making that change is worth XP.Sasha: Okay. I've just tagged myself.Ledia: And now the tallying needs to count that, and we need the count be shown on scoreboard.StarTree: StarTree is adding QXP to the tally!StarTree: And upgraded the original tally to make it ever so slightly faster!Sasha: Which scoreboard should we show here? This quest is not really philosophical.Ledia: I was thinking the new one can also show detective and quest XP.Ledia: I am adding that part.Ledia: Also adding a total EXP based only on the tags. Not sure what to do with the EXP on Guild Log yet.Ledia: And made the Nick attribute functional Just for Little Red Riding Hood. ๐Ledia: Added archetype.Ledia: Added DXP to the same list.Evelyn: I think it would look better with just the icon and the raw XP count without the level for the sub categories.Ledia: I think suggestions on making things prettier should be its own sub category: BXP.Sasha: I am adding BXP to the script.Ledia: Adding BXP to scoreboard.StarTree: Added BXP to Tally!Ledia: Just making things pretty...Evelyn: I think the subcategories should be hidden by default.Evelyn: Should Idea XP count toward total XP? I think when we make a suggestion in Guild Log, we normally get XP. Doing it directly at a thread should be the same.Ledia: I would say yes. Speaking as someone with the most DXP at the moment: 100.Sasha: It would be easier to understand the scoreboard if it is accounted.LRRH: But you got the XP from playing a game.Ledia: Wouldn't that qualify as training? Sasha: I added the scoreboard to the node.LRRH: That is arguably true.Vivi: If the idea is worth a point, then just use QXP instead. Keep the lightbulb separate for games.Vivi: You should get a peacemaking XP only when your idea benefits peacemaking to the general audience.Sasha: I think DXP is still for Detective XP. It is XP for investigating or troubleshooting something. In a game the problem is made up, but the relevant skill is real. Sasha: So it boils down to: is training worth XP? If Studying is worth XP, then so is training. By studying out loud we are contributing to the blog. I say it is worth XP.LRRH: Vivi do you contest? (I suppose I get XP for arbitrating?)Vivi: I concede.LRRH: @Sasha please add code to count AA for AXP.Sasha: Done.StarTree: Tally side is done!Ledia: Profile is also done.Vivi: @StarTree, how many tally points are added today so far?StarTree: 30!Ledia: This is correct and similar to what we were getting from Cardinal Quest. We haven't been keeping enough count for Guild Quests XP.Vivi: No. The tally is wrong. If the tally is counting DXP, the increase should be more than 100 just from Ledia's score.Ledia: That's true.StarTree: ๐ญStarTree: StarTree fixed it now... The difference is 502!LRRH: I think what Vivi did is worth a different sub category of XP: OXP for Oracle XP.Sasha: I added OXP to script.Ledia: Profile is done.Vivi: I am shifting the stars more to the right.Vivi: And I need to be able to see the total EXP for auditing.Ledia: I added that below the stars when the details are shown.Vivi: The archetype/level line is changed to inline-block so that when there are too many stars they stay on the same line.Vivi: 3B's score was not tallied. Now fixed.
This is Magic Bakery Plays Detective, Case BitTorrent Day 2.
๐จ DAY 2
Kisaragi: I spoke to a lawyer. They said that the plaintiff will most likely ask for the name of suspects. And we should inform the suspects before naming them.
Kisaragi: They advised that we get a lawyer within our jurisdiction to handle the case.Kisaragi: I am now checking and marking the location of lawyers on the list serving our jurisdiction.Kisaragi: Found a typo for one of the lawyer's name on the list.LRRH: Informed their webmaster on the typo.Kisaragi: Contacting one of the lawyers about our case.
๐ Event Log on File
Kisaragi: The free consulting lawyer showed us a PDF of an event log that is part of the case document.
Kisaragi: The earliest date of the download, narrows down to just one suspect who moved in around that time.Zoey: Leave it to the head maid! Case Closed. XDSasha: I am awarding Kisa with a detective hit for her excellence course of action with immediate result.Sasha: And a point for me for updating the script.Kisaragi: How should we proceed?LRRH: I think we should tell them immediately because the damage is per download.Evelyn: I think we should discretely tell them there is a matter to discuss, then let them choose how they want to discuss.LRRH: Okay. Since Kisa knows who the offender is, Kisa please handle it.Kisaragi: Understood.Zoey: ใใใใพใใพใใ XD
๐ New Router
โญ
Black: Since we have enough evidence on who the defendant ought to be, we no longer need the event log from the locked router, thus we also don't need a new router right now.
Black: Any objection before I cancel the order of the new router?Casey: No objection.Black: And should we factory reset the router now, so that we can log in? Doing so means that we might never know what password we used. Or the answers to the security questions.Ivy: Just make sure that you write them down next time.Black: Order is cancelled.
๐ Existing Router
Black: Router is reset. However I couldn't get to its info page. I probably need to connect to it with an USB cable.
Black: While looking for an USB cable, I found the receipt of our existing router. It was bought on 2020-05-23.Black: Found that I must use the phone app to set up. Now we are in.Black: The log and event log seem unlikely to have any information for the case. It doesn't have what address is being accessed for instance. You can't tell if a device is connected or not other than the exact moment where there is an entry.Black: For most entries, the Target and Source IP are just 0.0.0.0.Ivy: The log tells which local IP is assigned to which MAC address, and the IP address of the router.

This is for the draft of Chapter 16 page 15. Zoey had just used Faerie Fire to dispel Sasha's Flash Flood.
3B: What should happen on Page 15?
โ๏ธ Q: Will Zoey's Faerie Fire dispel Abilene Paradox?
Zoey: I think it would work because Abilene Paradox is a weak argument to support self-interest.
Sasha: Except when you try to do something good for others but has no means to know what they really want.Zoey: But I think in most cases you CAN confirm, so your flash flood is mostly gone.Sasha: I upgrade the script so XP can be applied to BUBBLE, CHAT, and ENTER.Sasha: In any case your Faerie Fire doesn't completely remove my Flash Flood.
โ๏ธ What Awareness can't solve
๐๏ธ๐Sasha: For example, Awareness as a solution doesn't work when you are trying to do something nice for people in the future. You simply can't know what people really want in the future.
Zoey: I disagree. You can quite safely assume that people in the near future share similar demographic and want the same thing people want right now, such as autonomy and happiness.Zoey: This is different from Abilene Paradox where the person making the choice doesn't even like the choice themselves.Black: When you can't use the platinum rule of treating people the way they want (since you can't talk to them), then you can still use the golden rule as the second best.3B: If I were to draw that, the scene is: As Faerie Fire dispels the Flash Flood rapidly, Sasha tries to summon Future, but Zoey quickly shoots it down with a gold arrow.Sasha takes one psychic damange.Evelyn: Doesn't Sasha only have one hit point? ๐Sasha: I think my adult form has three hitpoints.Sasha: But, Ledia took a hit 202301081057|last time. Are we not drawing that?3B: That seems like a detour. I don't know how to work that into the scene.Sasha: I think Zoey is right. Abilene Paradox is too weak. Now I consider my two other cards: Duolingo and Compassion as Self-Interest...
๐ณ Sasha calls the Duolingo Owl
๐๏ธ๐Sasha: I use the Duolingo Owl as an example of using self-interest to get things done. I argue that it is more effective than just hoping that people would be voluntarily alturistic.
Sasha: The example is that in the beginning, Duolingo harnesses people's self-interest to learn foreign language to get translation content from users learning language the other way around.Sasha: Say you know Spanish but you want to learn English. Duolingo would challenge you to translate something in English to Spanish. Then uses your translation to teach someone who knows English but tries to learn Spanish.Evelyn: That is letting people help each other. It is Arcacian. ๐คSasha: And my emphasis is that you can have Arcacian solutions based on people pursuing their self-interest. The person who ends up helping someone else isn't trying to help someone else. Their motivation could just be to learn the language they want to learn.Sasha: My second point is that this method, without relying on people's altruism, is more effective than those that only rely on altruism. If Duolingo just separately has people to "please translate for us and help other learn your language for free," it wouldn't have work as well as it is working.Ledia: Even without hard data, I find that argument quite compelling.
๐งฑ Ledia's Turn
๐
Ledia: As the Owl comes at me, I put my sword away and let it sit on my arm. "I am sold," I say.
Ledia: I think this is good for establishing, at least, that "Self Interest is sometimes good". Ledia: And I agree that it establishes that "Self-interest can sometimes motivate more good deeds than other-interest."
3B: I think there is enough content for me. Please wait.3B thanks all for the content.

โญSasha: Okay. I need a few volunteers to help play test 221B Baker Street. This game claims to be "The Master Detective Game", but its mechanics seem really simple. Each case is much shorter compared to NCIS. Would it be good enough for us to play?
Casey: I am interested if it is shorter.Sasha: The game starts with a case introduction card, followed by at most 14 clues, where each clue corresponds to a location/subject expert.Sasha: In the actual game, the players are rivals. They roll dice and race on a game board to get clues.Sasha: For us we will just skip the game board and play it as a coop game.Sasha: Each case specifies a few questions that the detectives must answer correctly to win.Sasha: If you play, you must make guesses.

Welcome to Magic Bakery Plays 221B Baker Street! This is a game where we reveal clues and try to guess the correct culprit! The game can only be played once. If you don't want spoilers, please don't read our play log!
๐ฅจ Magic Bakery House Rules
The official game is competitive, but we will play it as a coop. Here are some house rules and rationale.
โญ We skip movement
Sasha: The board is meaningless to us as we play is asynchronously online.
โญ One clue per player per case
Sasha: Each case has a maximum of 14 clues. If there are more players than clues, the additional players may still discuss and guess.
โญ Chooser decides the clue
Sasha: We are playing as ourselves. The player may simplify or change the content of the clue entirely. It is part of the game even if a vital clue is omitted.
โญ If you play you are on.
Sasha: At the end of each game, each player must choose their answer or take a loss. The win- loss ratio will be accounted for the detective level leaderboard.

This is Magic Bakery Plays 221B Baker Street Case 1. The game content is probably rated teens to adult. โ ๏ธ
๐จ Case Start
Sasha: A new preacher in town who is known carrying a large Bible is found stabbed to death in his balcony seat at the Playhouse during a performance of Hamlet. Accompanied the victim was Duchess Tallcourt. She discovered the body when she returned from the powder room after intermission. The preacher's Bible was gone. On the floor neaby was one German-made cigarette and a packet of aspirin.
Sasha: The case card content is longer than an NCIS plot twist, so I am splitting it up and let someone else RP. These RP's do not count toward the one clue per player rule.
โญ Duchess, Duke, and Bishop
Mikela: The absolutely true rumor has it that the victim preacher was the Duchess's new favorite. That angered the Duke (her hunsband), and the Bishop whom she previously supported.
โญ The Leader Performer and Duchess's Daughter
Tanya: The play of the night was performed by the Longworth Acting Troupe. Earl Longworth was the lead actor.
Mikela: It is widely known that Earl has been woonig the Duchess's daughter Anastasia in hopes of gaining support for his poor troupe.
๐ฏ Scotland Yard wants to know...
A: Who killed the preacher
B: The weapon
C: The motive.
Sasha: I hope that the formatting is not too confusing. It shall improve as we play it.Sasha: Depending on how easy or difficult this game is we will make adjustments.Casey: It seems like a given to get clue from the drug store and smoke store. I will go to the smoke store.
๐ [131] Tobacconist
Casey: Casey heard that there is a short case and chimes in, "The brand of the cigarette is the same brand that the Bishop smokes."
Casey: The clue is really short. It just says "The Bishop smokes German-made cigarettes."Ledia: Now I am curious how the game works with such short clues.
๐ [1] Apothecary
Evelyn: Evelyn interviews the Troupe Leader and observes that he is suffering from constant headaches.
Evelyn: It's true, the clues are short. ๐ Zoey: Suppose the murderer was planting evidence against others, than the only suspect left is the Duke. Ledia: But where would you find the Duke?Zoey: Maybe the hotel? But I want to sweep the crime scene, which is the playhouse. XD
๐ [101] Playhouse
Zoey: Zoey goes to the crime scene hoping to find more evidence, but it seems that the Scotland Yard detectives were thorough. Next she checks the attendance, and found that the Bishop was in attendance at the night of the murder.
Zoey: Well, so was the Lead Actor. XD
๐ [41] Hotel
Ledia: The Duke family were visiting. Ledia goes to their hotel suite. She could not find the Duke, but talked to the daughter, who evidently did not like the victim.
Ledia: Good job guessing where the Duke might be.Zoey: But that was the daughter. XDLedia: We'll see if we can actually talk to the Duke.Tanya: The Lead Actor didn't have a motive, now he does if he did that to woo the daugther.Black: Maybe the Bishop stole the aspirin hoping to make the intermission longer so he could have more time for the murder.LRRH: I go to the carriage depot to see who else might have gone to the playhouse.
๐ [21] Carriage Depot
LRRH: Little Red goes to the Carriage Depot to see if anyone else suspcious had gone to the playhouse on the night of the murder. "Oh, are you looking for the man with the Bible? I've seen that Bible," says a driver, "That [Lead Actor] was reading it to the [victim] and the Duchess yesterday." By yesterday he meant during the day of the murder, but before the murder.
Ledia: There is a ton of missing information to fill in.Zoey: And we still don't have the weapon.Black: I'll check the pawnshop for a weapon.Tanya: Don't you think people normally throws murder weapon into the water? I would go to the Dock to look for the weapon.Black: You're right.
๐ [91] Pawnbroker
Black: I got a clue that says, "Killer Clue (Two Parts) II. Value". What does that mean?Sasha: It means that the clue is directly about the Killer's name. I think only the Lead Actor's name Earl Longworth matches this clue.Black: I am not sure how to roleplay this.Ledia: Since it says Two Parts, does it mean there is another Killer Clue that potentially points to the same name?Sasha: Yes.Tanya: Does the Bishop have a name?Sasha: The Bishop is called Bishop of Whittenfroth.Tanya: I seeLedia: The challenge so far is to come up with the RP from the extremely short clue.Sasha: Maybe the NCIS way of playing this is bad. Let's think about that also. If we want to keep playing.Black: Black goes to the pawnshop to look for the Bible. If the Bible was sold for money as the motive, the prime suspect would be the lead actor Earl Longworth.
Zoey: Then we are only missing the weapon.
๐ [31] Dock
Tanya: Tanya goes to the dock to search for the weapon descretely. As she searches, she came to the theory that the large Bible was not just a Bible, but an artifact. A person who had read it up close might realize its true worth. A visit to the museum might be warranted.
Tanya: The actual clue I got was "General motive clue: You can't judge a book by its cover." That seems to point to the Bible being something very valuable, enough to worth killing for.
๐ [121] Scotland Yard
StarTree: StarTree looks up files about the victim at headquarters. One thing that stands out is that the victim had a handsome tan, which was unusually in London!
๐ [61] Museum
Kisaragi: Kisaragi follows Tanya's lead and confirms that the lead actor had a degree in appraising authenticity of original manuscripts. He had served as a consult to the museum in serval occasions.
Kisaragi: The clues seem to be only loosely associated with the location.Ledia: Your clue seems perfectly matching.Kisaragi: My clue did not mention the museum. But it does say the lead actor is an authority on manuscript authenticity.Ledia: Yes it is hard trying to fill in the gap for a detective game. There is always a chance of misinterpreting the context.Zoey: Still missing the weapon. Could it be that the Bibble IS the weapon? XDSasha: I think the weapon clue would be at the Locksmith, since Locksmith and Blacksmith both have metal tools.
๐ [51] Locksmith
Sasha: Sasha infiltrates the Troupe camp and casts elemental trace. "I think I've gotten the murder weapon," says Sasha at the quest channel, "If you live by the sword, you'll die by the sword. The murder weapon is a real sword for the play."
Sasha: All things considered, I made up the scene. Don't ask me what happens if the killer is not the lead actor or the weapon is not a sword. Sasha: Kisa is right, the relation between the location and the clue is like Codename. So the Duke might not be literally staying in a hotel, but both hotel and a mansion are "big houses", so if you go to a hotel you could find someone rich at their residence.Zoey: Four clues remain, one of them has to be about the Killer's name. So really only three clues left.Sasha: But we have answers to all three questions: Killer, weapon, motive.Zoey: What are you suggesting? That we stop getting clues? Why would I risk my hit-rate by forgoing a clue? XDSasha: I'll consider for the next game that we can only reveal 10 clues out of 14.Evelyn: I would prefer the game to be less stressful.Sasha: I think revealing all clues woule be too easy. But for this time let's finish all of them.Ledia: But it feels strange to just ask people reveal clue. I say if we run out of players, we either stop or must use bonus clue.Sasha: I agree, I think this can be drumroll time. Ledia: I am quite confident that the answers are as we now expect: Lead Actor, Sword, Selling the Bible for money.StarTree: StarTree calls for backup for an apparently easy win!
๐ [11] Bank
James: James answers the call and looks up the Duke. The Duke is a collector of original manuscript.
James: Did the murderer take the Bible to sell to the Duke for money, or for his daughter's hand? You decide.Zoey: Can we just say OR? They are both likely. XD
๐ [71] Newspaper Shop
Mikela: The buzz of the day being the original manuscript of Hamlet was stolen recently from an exhibit!
Mikela: The emphasis was from the clue!Tanya: I think that emphasis was a clue that the killer was the lead actor.
๐ [76] Park
Gaia: The killer is not short.
Tanya: We still have the second killer clue that eliminates "Tallcourt".
๐ [111] Pub
P4: P4 goes to the Pub but found nothing relevant.
P4: The clue is "No clue."Sasha: Well, time for decision!
๐ฅ Detective Choices
Theory 1: Killer: Lead Actor; Weapon: Sword; Motive: Selling the Bible for money.
Theory 2: Killer: Lead Actor; Weapon: Sword; Motive: Getting to the good side of the Duke for a smooth marriage proposal to his daughter.
Tanya: I pick Theory 1 because the Lead Actor was wooing the daughter to get funding, it never said he actually loved her or wanted to be with her for any other reason. Ledia: True. Theory 1.Sasha: 1James: 1LRRH: 1Zoey: Do we care about details such as to whom he sells the Bible?Tanya: Unless you want to make a point that he is not selling to the Duke, then it is implied that he sees the Duke as a potential buyer.Zoey: Okay. 1.Black: 1Casey: 1Kisaragi: 1Mikela: 1!Evelyn: How do we avoid TPK? ๐ Zoey: We don't. XD We are going for our individual Detective Level. XDEvelyn: 1 ๐Sasha: Yes, Evelyn, come to the dark side where individual interest is better than group interest. If you tried to avoid TPK by choosing "otherwise", you would just be prevent the guild from a complete win.Evelyn: I realized that I don't want to be the only one winning if everyone else is wrong. ๐ Zoey: OMG rebuttal! XDStarTree: 1!Sasha: There is no proper drumroll this time... ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ
๐๏ธ SOLUTION
Sasha: The preacher (victim) is actually a thief who stole the original manuscript of Hamlet from an exhibit on the Riviera, where he got his tan!!
Story: The preacher disguised the manuscript as a Bible and had the Lead Actor authenticate it for the Duke. But the Lead Actor was in need of money, so he killed him (with Hamlet's sword) and stole the manuscript. He also planted the cigarette to draw suspicion off himself, but left his aspirin by accident.
Killer: Lead Actor Earl LongWorth
Weapon: Sword
Motive: Manuscript
Sasha: We missed that the preacher was a thief! Anyone who got that should get a bonus win.Sasha: Still, everyone wins. Congratulations!

This is a routine check and failure analysis for Cardinal Quest.
Tanya: This is not an emergency.
๐กStarTree: There are 8 open quests, 355 quest hours, 64 side quests, and 19 prep quests remaining!
Preq Quests have been cleared.
๐ฏ Dashboard upgrade
Tanya: I would like to improve the dashboard of Cardinal Quest. Any ideas?
Black: The mensions section is too long. It should be collapsed.Tanya: Done.Tanya: What do you think if I ths stats boxes become clickable, and clicking each one opens the detail screen below?Vivi: If you do that the stats boxes need to be much smaller, otherwise the user won't know that something has change when viewing on a phone.Tanya: Adding function ShowLPN.Tanya: Changed Quest Hours to the new style.Tanya: Changed Side Quests to the new style.Tanya: Changed Prep Quests to the new style.Tanya: Changed Failure Analysis to the new style.Tanya: Currently there are 12 unprocessed failures out of 211.Tanya: Added snapshot to leaderboard.Tanya: Updated script so leaderboard entries remain one row each.
ERROR
๐ณ๏ธ Failure Analysis: LC
Tanya: For the Countermeasures section I am adding "LC" as a new improvement this year. LC refers to the changes in the checklist where we group the check items by stages to help identify the earliest stage a check should or can be done. Any suggestion on a better codename?
Ledia: Perhaps a 'Walkthrough' ?Evelyn: I hope that we keep the same acronym so we know what we are talking about. ๐ Black: Legacy Check'?Tanya: I think we can have a new name or acronym, since this new way is a new format for the LC.Zoey: If you divide the overall checklist into stages, that is the same as dividing a dungeon into rooms. So what you now have is description of minions in each zone, or mini boss, or sub quest for each dungeon.Ledia: Totally agree.Tanya: How about 'SC' which means both Stage Check and Stage Challenge?Black: I would prefer the acronym to be PC.Tanya: I can see why.Zoey: I vote against 'PC' because I would think a computer, 'politically correct' or 'player character.' PC is too common as an acronym.Black: Then how about 'PRC'? R can mean room. Three-letter acronym is harder to miss.Ledia: So... Player Room Challenge?Zoey: It sounds forced.Tanya: What about "projected" or "predicted"?Zoey: I can live with that. I guess.Tanya: I will use PRC for now.Tanya: Currently PRC is a countermeasure for 28/211 failures.Tanya: CHK is 60/210 (29%), TSN 73/210 (35%), MAP 3/210 (1%)Evelyn: I think that occurence statistics might be helpfull for the Failure Areas.Tanya: MGT 10/210 (5%), MND 17/210 (8%), KNW 4/210 (2%). We didn't analyze the failure area for most failures. But I think most of the failures that can be solved by PRC are MGT failures. What PRC improves is better planning for foresight about the quest.Tanya: Also: EXH 13/210 (6%), FRC 3/210 (1%)Zoey: Okay, PRC in my mind is "Pre-check".Evelyn: I think that is easy to remember. ๐Black: The failure analysis section is looking good.Tanya: I am adding some pointers on what further to do.
Action items & Priority
๐Priority 1: Complete countermeasure for all failures.
๐Priority 2: List all Failures Analysis codes.
๐Priority 3: Categorize Failure Area and Cause for all failures.
Tanya: I think that is enough failure analysis for this month. But I plan to do actual Cardinal Quest tomorrow for World Tree. Please join or monitor.Black: Sounds like a good plan.Evelyn: Let's quest! ๐@Cardinal Monthly Failure Analysis is complete.@Cardinal has double advanced to Rank C.Tanya: Added flex ranking on the items based on occurence.

This is a discussion in the monthly self-evaluation series where we aim to create a rubric for each evaluation topic.
๐ 5 point scale
๐กBlack: The rubric should be based on a five-point scale where 3 means meeting expectation. 4 and 5 both mean beyond expectations, 1 and 2 both mean below expectation.
Ledia: Could you be more specific about the differences between 4 and 5, and 1 and 2?โญBlack: The scale we want to elaborate on, for each subcategory is the following.
Grade 5: Top performance, highest level of contribution.
Grade 4: Exceeds expectation of what it takes for a satisfactory result.
Grade 3: Meets expectation, satisfactory result,
Grade 2: Partially meets expectation, areas of improvement are known and can be undertaken.
Grade 1: Below expectation, significant improvement is needed.
Ledia: From what I see, Grade 3 is the passing grade, to us that means Rank A. So Grade 4 is Rank S and Grade 5 is Rank SS.Black: I think normally a "passing grade" is a C. But I agree with your scale where Grade 3 means Rank A.Ledia: Not when you are talking about deliverables. A 'B' product has some kind of defect that the buyer has a legal right to reject. So 'Passing' means Grade A. An A product.Black: I agree with you.Black: The plan of this series is to make a rubric for each subcategory, preferably using measurable metrics. Discussion content will be summarized at 202302050852|this node.
๐ [A1] Completing Quests On Time
๐กBlack: This subcategory is on whether a quest is completed within deadline if there is a commitment to do so at the time of accepting the quest. In previous discussion, we recognized that we are not tracking whether deadlines are met. I think upgrading our system to track deadlines is the main topic this month.
Tanya: I think Rank A should correspond to at or above 87.5% on time. Rank B at or above 75%, and Rank C at or above 50%.Ledia: Yes, that is the normal meaning of our letter ranks.Ledia: Rank S is for 100% on time within the evaluation period.Sasha: But realistically, shouldn't meeting expectation means 100% on time?Ledia: Do you mean "Ideally"? "Realistically" there is Murphy's law.Black: Do we not care about improvements regarding being on time?Ledia: The effects of such improvements should be reflected in the ratio. If the improvements are worthwhile then the ratio should be good.Tanya: Rank SS should be for the aura effect where the quester helps other become on time.Tanya: I think we can track for SS by listing improvements and attribute the result of being on-time to those improvements. But that should come after the quester is already Rank S.Black: Let's discuss how to track on-time ness.Tanya: On MAP, we add a column for the planned deadline, a column of the actual completion time, and a column for the judgment on whether the deadline is met.Tanya: The judgment should include whether an unmet deadline is caused by us or other teams. And also whether an error by us causes rework in the field. Tanya: Having rework in the field implies the quest was not complete at delivery. That voids the on-time-ness.Zoey: I think with this metric, we can retrospectively compute the on-time ness for 2022. I think we might not even be Rank C if we count field reworks.Evelyn: ๐Ledia: Are we accounting per quest site, per object, or per dungeon?Tanya: I think it should be per batch. So per quest site.Ledia: What happens if another team causes a delay, and we take advantage of that delay to work on another quest first?Tanya: That should be allowed and would not count toward us not meeting our original deadline.StarTree: There isn't enough space to add three columns on MAP, but StarTree has an idea!StarTree: On MAP, timeliness can its own row per quest site. This will let us filter and see all timeliness data across all quest sites, and we can use the existing columns to mark instances we failed and caused delay!Tanya: That is a good idea. Please do so.StarTree: MAP is now prepared for analysis!Evelyn: We need to investigate the due date for quests have have completed. ๐ Tanya: I marked both Dawn Island quests FAIL.Tanya: According to MAP there were 18 quest sites. I already marked 3 to MIS: Missing deadline. So we were at best Rank B.Tanya: I think that investigation is part of 202208250038|Failure Analysis. So I will add that in the priority list as priority 3.Tanya: For now I am adding the deadlines for quests that are not yet complete.Ledia: I think we can reasonably tell if a quest has failed but checking messages. Tanya: Yes. But we can do that during downtime, thus lower priority. I would like to start World Tree Quest.Ledia: Understood.Black: I think this concludes the discussion for this subcategory. MAP has been updated with a method to track whether quest deadline is met or missed.Black thanks all for their contributions.@Whale has advanced to Rank D.
The artifact at World Tree will be transfered to a different site. This is a call for questers to secure the transfer.
Tanya: Created 202302051218|World Tree node.Tanya: Created 202302051227|Quest Sites node.Tanya: Transferring quest sites links from Cardinal Quest to Quest Side node.Tanya: Added function ShowLP2N.Tanya: Updated Cardinal Quest HQ to make stats section collapsible.
๐ฎ Quest Briefing
๐ฎTanya: The artifact quest currently has 14 quest hours remaining. There was a request that the barrier be transfered first. That would affect trials. We need the following:
๐Dates: Confirm the dates the barrier will be gone and the artifact will be transfered.
๐Aggro: List the reactive components of the artifact that might draw aggro.
๐Route: Upgrade the transport route and clear all hazards.
Evelyn: I like the upgrade to the Cardinal Quest HQ. I like how I don't need to jump to another page for the quest. Ledia: Yes, it is highly compact. It is probably the most convenient layout so far. Tanya is setting a new standard.@Cardinal has advanced to Rank B for its substantial layout upgrade.Zoey: I am checking the dates.
๐๏ธ Schedule
๐กZoey: Zoey checks the record and notes the following schedule with only rough dates.
Feb 6 (Mon): Schedule meeting.
Zoey: There is a meeting tomorrow about the schedule.Before Feb 17: Barrier will be deactivated to be transfered and activated at the new site awaiting the artifact.
Zoey: This implies we need to put the barrier on trial first before it leaves World Tree.Feb 17 (Fri): Pixie guards will arrive at World Tree.
Zoey: The guards with train with the artifact. I don't think they need our help on that.End of Feb: The artifact departs to the new site with Pixie guards.
Tanya: Coincidentally, the mage who knows the artifact the best will leave World Tree on Feb 17. That is a point of concern.Zoey: It is not like he will be "gone". He will just be in homeland, and I heard that his successor had arrived.Tanya: I see.
โ๏ธ [B01] Core Power
Evelyn: Our most advanced route check is the latest one created for Deer Crossing. Evelyn refers to that for checks related to the core.
Evelyn: The existing check list for the artifact is practically blank. ๐Zoey: It has always been on low priority. XDSylvia: I am copying over the new scrolls.Sylvia: I think we need a process to maintain the master check list. Tanya: I have marked that as a FAIL to be handled through Failure Analysis.Ledia: I am skipping ahead to check the barrier first.
โ๏ธ [H05] Barrier
Ledia: Deer Crossing does not have the kind of barrier for the artifact. So we need a master check list now.
Ledia: The reference we used didn't have a checklist.Zoey: I'll find one.Zoey: We have a problem. I found a trial record for the barrier and on first glance it doesn't seem to match our barrier. I need someone else to help check what is going on.Tanya: The scroll you are looking at is the main scroll, not the barrier scroll.Zoey: You're right XDTanya: For today, I think we can stop once we complete the route check plan for the barrier.Zoey: Okay. I think I have found the reference. All we need is convert it to our format to be consistent.@Cardinal has advanced to Rank A.

Hey hey hey, we are back for the solution to 202301121032|The Monster Dessert!
Mikela: Are you ready for the excitment of earning (or losing) a detective hit?
๐ฌ About the optional scoring
Mikela: There is no pressure to bet for a hit. But if you want to bet, now is your chance! Why did the man knock over the salt cellar? Was it because:
A: The man just need some extra physical committment to ensure that he would not eat the unhealthy dessert.
B: The man placed a bet with someone that he could stop himself from eating the dessert.
C: The man doesn't want the debuff after eating the dessert, as he has other plans afterward.
D: There is an ingredient in the dessert that he wants to avoid.
E: The man did it for a religious reason.
F: The man doesn't have enough money to pay for the dessert.
Tanya: I think F is unlikely because normally the guests do not need to pay at a dinner party. And, ruining the dessert wouldn't excuse him needing to pay even if they are at a restaurant.P4: Could we pick A,C,D at once?Mikela: At this point I would say "Yes you may!" since the majority of the players would not dare to vouch for any choice!Sasha: Is there an emoji that can represent courage? Maybe whoever dares to make a choice in a situation like this may earn such badge.LRRH: How about one of these: ๐๐ฅ๐ ๐ฅSasha: I am still using the drum for drumroll. It might be confusing.Zoey: It won't be confusing because you'll only see it at the scoreboard.Evelyn: Which one does P4 want?P4: P4 wants the tomato. ๐ Casey: ... why? Why not a lion for courage? ๐ฆSasha: I understand the Lion more than the Tomato.Tanya: I would prefer this: ๐๏ธZoey: I know why when courage is tomato. XDMikela: If you dare to bet, then you will get the icon you want, otherwise it is moot!Zoey: Now I want an ๐น icon. XDZoey: Is it worth risking a hit for the icon? XDSasha: Well you can always level up your hit rate if you keep playing detective.Zoey: Only if they continue to be easy. XDZoey: And are you saying that we get that icon regardless whether we are correct?Ledia: Are we going to track the number of Courage badges? And I assume that those don't count toward actual XP?Sasha: Yes we can track it like DXP-WIN or DXP-LOS. Maybe this will be DXP-CRG.๐ฅMikela: So right now I have P4 stepping out to bet a hit for a ๐ . Please make up your mind. I'll only leave this opportunity open until my food is ready... in like 10 mintues!
Casey: I bet that the solution is not A,C, or D, but something clever and satisfying. For a Lion. ๐ฆSasha: You would get the lion as long as you bet.Casey: I know, I don't know how to phrase it. ๐คทโโ๏ธTanya: I follow Casey's bet for a ๐๏ธ. We have a blindspot for the man's motive. I don't think it is A,C,or D. We need further investigation.Zoey: Whatever Tanya says. XD I follow suit for ๐น XDSasha: Tanya's hit rate is actually lower than yours or P4's.Zoey: But I want the ๐น XDLedia: That doesn't explain why you side with Tanya instead of P4. Zoey: I think P4's answer is too normal. I don't think that can be the solution. It has to be something else. XDLRRH: Then I also follow for a ๐บ. Fearless Rider.Ledia: It is not very fearless if someone else already took the lead.LRRH: I am okay if the courage score has a rating based on the number of followers.Sasha: That is an excellent idea!Ledia: Then I will go for a dragon ๐. Following Casey's choice.Evelyn: This is turning out to be a great moment for the couragous ones. ๐Evelyn: And I am not one of them. ๐ Sasha: Can I really stand four of our group of six getting a special badge and not me? Not really. I follow Casey for a ๐.Evelyn: ๐Zoey: Critical Hit! XDEvelyn: I stay with P4 for a ๐คEvelyn: ๐๐๐Mikela: Time's Up! I will now reveal the SOLUTION!
๐ SOLUTION
Mikela: Here is the absolutely appropate and clever solution to the puzzle... ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ
Mikela: The host sneezed! The guest felt that his dessert had been contaminated but didn't want to be impolite and made up an apparent excuse!Mikela: As I said earlier, the guesses would be judged based on the keyword that I highlighted. All things considered, the solution happens to match ALL THREE keywords: Unhealthy, debuff, and ingredent! So P4 and Evelyn are the winners! Congratulations!Mikela: And for the courageous acts of the players, here are the suggested titles that StarTree or Ledia may somehow include in the profile:
๐Mikela: P4 is awarded for having by far the top initiative, starting and finishing the "fight" in the blink of an eye with unwavering precision before anyone else catches up!
P4 is recognized for the Rank S combat skill Triple Assassinate.๐Mikela: Casey is awarded for the courage to initiate opposition!
Casey is recognized for the Rank A tank skill Lion's Defiance.๐Mikela: Evelyn is awarded for never leaving a friend alone!
Evelyn is recognized for the Cleric trait Friends Forever.Mikela: For the rest, I give you the option of choosing your custom icon with the cost of one loss, or keeping your hit rate without gaining an icon. To tell you the truth I have not thought of the title to go wtih it, so if you want to keep the icon you might need to come up with it yourself.Zoey: I want to get the icon in an awesome moment so I'll keep the hit rate. XDTanya: I will take the hit, because I was wrong.๐Mikela: Tanya is award for her uncompromising integrity to keep the ratio real!
Tanya is recognized for the Oracle skill True Ratio.LRRH: I also choose to keep my ratio. I'll wait for a more meaningful moment to get a badge.Sasha: Same.Ledia: I'll take the dragon and think of a title myself.Mikela: Ledia is award for taking matter to her own hands!
Ledia is recognized for the Adventurer skill Trail Brazer.Zoey: Now I am curious what title I would get if I did choose to take a hit! XDMikela: There will be a next time! But that's all for this time, folks! Cheers!Mikela bids everyone a wonderful evening!@Puzzle has advanced to Rank D.LRRH: I am glad that Mikela gave an option to not choose the icon. I wouldn't know what that icon would mean if I did get it now.Tanya: Maybe this is not the event where your icon would be relevant.LRRH: That's probably it.Ledia: Well, there is always the option of taking a hit and not getting an icon.Zoey: XDLRRH: Okay. I'll just take the hit.LRRH is recognized for Integrity.Zoey: No~~!Sasha: I don't want to be known for having integrity. I am supposed to be sneaky and opportunistic.Ledia: But you are the game master, shouldn't you be fair?Sasha: It is fair. Mikela offered the choice. It was a legal choice for me to keep my hit rate.Ledia: But if you do that the hit rate of the detective level that you created wouldn't be true. Wouldn't that jeopardize the meaning of that hit rate?Zoey: Uh-oh... Ledia caught up. we're going down!Sasha: Fine. No one escapes the wrath.Ledia: That's called Justice.Zoey: "If we burn you burn with us." XDLedia changes the name of her skill to Dragon Fire.
๐ Scoreboard Updates
Ledia: This seems like the perfect time to upgrade the scoreboard. Since the update directly relates to the puzzle session we just had, I don't feel like starting a new thread. You are welcome to stick around.
Ledia: First thing first: Mikela didn't update the skill list, so I will update that. The skill list is where we actually list all the recognitions.Ledia: Next is the question of how we actually display those unique awards.Sasha: I think my idea earlier about a DXP-COR tag won't work.Tanya: You can hard code a custom section in the original score entry and have the function read and display that content. You could put it as the lastelementchild of the div. Ledia: I think that will work.Ledia: It seems that eventually, 202301251008|Node 202301251008 will or can replace the Bakers section. Tanya: Quite possible.Sasha: Don't you think that if you start adding custom sections there, that list will become huge?Ledia: Yes, but if I put the custom content at a different section, the code will have to jquery twice. Once for all the tags, a second time just for the div. Sasha: That is not an issue, it is just another selector. Not another nested function.Tanya: I think Sasha is right.Sasha: But I have another idea, that I think we should use DXP-COR counter, but the icon can be customized according to an attribute.Sasha: If the icons are unique, we just need to add a common legends section to explain them and their variations.Ledia: What should be the default icon for DXP-COR?Sasha: How about a yellow heart ๐Ledia: I think the perfect place to put that is right before the green checkmark for the hit rate.Tanya: Agreed.Ledia: May I suggest that DXP-COR be called DXP-CHA instead? CHA means challenge. It is counting challenging situations.Ledia: The more challenges the hit ratio faces, the more meaningful/accurate the hit rate is.Sasha: True. Maybe I should modify the Detective Level equation to factor in this challenge factor.Ledia: Updatied function CXP_Single2Ledia: Added function ShowNextHTIL and ShowPrevHTIL.Ledia: Added a space before the total blog XP count to avoid confusion.Ledia: Rearranged the icons so the colors flow better.Sasha: Any idea on how the challenge number should be related to detective level?Tanya: You could make that another limit. Such as a player's detective level cannot exceed their number of challenges.Sasha: The NCIS games we played aren't entirely non-challenging.Tanya: You could retrospectively award challenge to games where someone genuinely lost.Sasha: That seems acceptable, since even if you win a game when there is no challenge, you are still improving your hit rate.Evelyn: I think a win during a challenge should worth more, but a win without challenge (where no one lost) shouldn't worth nothing.Sasha: But it is not nothing. It still gives you your hit ratio.Evelyn: But someone who leads everyone else win in a game can't level up.Sasha: True... and we don't want to make this competitive.Sasha: How about the max detective level is a player's WIN plus WIN under a challenging puzzle?Evelyn: I think that is better than having a limit only based on challenges.Sasha: FYI: I have just updated the equation to use both DXP and OXP for calculating detective level.Ledia: I am done for tonight. Good night.Evelyn: Good night. ๐@Mira has advanced to Rank D.Tanya: As it stands, increasing the limit with CHA WIN won't benefit anyone, since P4 and Evelyn have too few XP compared to their WIN. How about letting CHA WIN make the XP worth more?Sasha: And how much more do you think it should worth?Tanya: How about a whole level? A CHA WIN is directly added to the overall detective level.Sasha: I quite like that idea. It is simple and does not reduce what we already have.Sasha: Equation is updated.@Detective has advanced to Rank D.

[180] Oracle Self-Defense
Natalie: Ann claims to be an oracle and knows that Bob intents to kill her with a knife. As Bob enters her oracle tent, Ann shoots and kills Bob. Bob drops dead with a knife in hand behind his back. Can Ann claim self-defense IF there is evidence that Bob did have an intention to kill her at the tent?
Casey: Yes. If you have evidence that someone wants to kill you, and they in fact has an out-of-place knife in hand.Fina: Yes. Preemptive strike is part of self-defense.Natalie: The card's answer is NO, because Ann lacks an objective component for the threat to be reasonable at the time she encounters Bob.Fina: The law is wrong. That is how you get oracles killed. Fina: Also, in this case, Bob approached Ann with a knife in hand. If they are strangers, Bob has the responsibility to ensure that the other stranger allows him armed as he enters. Fina: Ann is in her own oracle tent. The boundary is clearly defined. It is a visitor beware situation. Bob walked into his ownn grave.Casey: Well, I agree with Fina.

We can probably have a XP type for each emoji but let's consider grouping them in six main groups.Sasha: I think the grouping can come later, a player may only get a few types of XP.Tanya: Where the XP category may overlap, the quester chooses which icon they want to bank in.Sasha: Exactly.Ledia: Good luck updating, see you all tomorrow.Sasha: Night.Sasha: First thing first. @Tanya, are you serious that you want ๐ to be an XP type? My concern is, if you do that everytime someone uses ๐ for emphasis would be getting XP.Tanya: I think goal setting and declaring milestone should worth XP. I think we should not be aware that almost all icon in front of a speaker is potentially an XP. We would just have to get used to that new meaning.Sasha: Okay. I add ๐ as PXP to the script.LRRH: I have a lot of XP types I want to add, like cooking, cleaning, taking out the trash, etc.Tanya: I think the legend will need its own node. So I am making one.Tanya: Makes a new node template that is compatible with the collapsing style.Tanya: The node is 202302062316|here.LRRH: I am adding a box listing XP types I want to add. Please add them when you have time.Sasha: I am adding the list for Detective XP.Tanya: It is late.

Yesterday StarTree found that the region was infested with Jelly Queen Slimes. So Zoey decided to investigate and take action.
๐ Through the portals
๐Zoey: Apparently the JQ Slimes went through portals and leaked everywhere. StarTree counted 991 instances. Zoey decides that since ALL of them need to be fixed eventually, she would just fix them one by one.
Zoey: Added HXP to script.Zoey: Added IXP to script.๐ฏZoey: Zoey discovers that some of the Jelly Queen Slimes are friendly and seems to be legit inhabitats and calls for a second opinion.
Zoey: So, we also use the JQ tag for linking chat logs to a node. I think those are legitimate uses. Unless someone else helps decide whether those are ok, I will skip them for now.Zoey: The use of JQ tag at Archive2 seems legitimate. They are used for linking chats, and for linking to a node that was being discussed.Ivy: I would like to rule that in ALL cases, the JQ tag is illegitimate even when used to list all chat. The newer style requires the user to click on "Mentions" to show the related chats.Zoey: But if the node does not have any associated chat, the user won't know it until they click on it. Isn't that inconvenient?Ivy: The problem with JQ tag is that it is a risk of un-updated content or infinite loop.Ivy: I'll be okay with another tag that automatically shows a count of the related links, but not actually listing them on the page until user clicks on it.Zoey: Let's see: There are 196 instances of that in Archive2 and 496 instances of that in Archive1. That is the majority use. 692 total.Ivy: I suggest fixing the more obviously bad cases first, where JQ could just be LNK, the new style.Zoey: I think there are about 281 cases. That is most of the remaining uses.Zoey: Cleared those linked to Arena Comparisons. 274/281 remaining.Zoey: Added WrXP for ๐น in the script.Zoey: Cleared those linked to Adventurer's Hall. 248/281 remaining.Zoey: Clearing some loose ones.Zoey: Added WdXP for ๐ก๏ธ in the script.Ledia: Are you separating them by weapon type?Zoey: Yes.

๐ Arcacia's Score
StarTree: StarTree found that Arcacia didn't get a score for some Arcacia Awards, it is now corrected, so there will be a jump in her score today!
Hello, this is a session where I draw out loud, or try to talk about what I am doing and the steps I go through to draw.
3B: I will be drawing Chapter 16 Page 15, but this isn't really a discussion on what should be on the page, since I had already done a draft.3B: And if we discuss what should be on it, I won't be actually drawing it. So... here we go.
โ๏ธ Chapter 16 Page 15 Panel 1 Ink
3B: What I have right now is the draft for the whole page, which has three panels. The manga page is read from top to bottom. I normally put the top panel to the back, so in Krita, the first panel is the layer group at the bottom.
3B: So I rename a layer group to be Panel 1.3B: In each panel layers group, there are three sub folders: Ink, Color, Draft. I go to the Ink group to do the outline.Sasha: I think 3B should be somehow getting XP for explaining this.3B: But I'm not saying anything that you can't learn from the internet.Sasha: But you are talking about how your drawing is organized. It is like talking about where you hang your keys. I can't learn from the internet where you hang YOUR keys.Casey: Yea, I get credit for just posting what repair I did.Casey: We even get credits for discussing. You should be getting something for describing. 3B: But as I said, if we start chatting I won't be drawing... I'm supposed to be drawing.Sasha: I am making the ๐จ icon an XP type. MXP. Just keep drawing and talking and I will snap that to your bubble.3B: Okay.3B: Because I am not used to drawing a face facing right, I flip the canvas and draw it facing left.3B: I try to draw each line in a single stroke. If the stroke looks wrong I just undo and draw again.3B: Eyes need their only layer because I redraw them often.3B: Hair also needs its own layer for the same reason. In general each group of line can have its own layer. I don't think there is a limit to how many layers you can have in Krita.3B: It is okay when the lines on different layers overlap. That can be fixed using an erase mask layer without actually erasing the line.3B: Oftentimes the draft will make your line appear better than it is. So make it more transparent or switch it off to see if your lines are good.3B: The draft doesn't have the thickness of the clothing. I add them when I draw the actual line.3B: This angle would show that Sasha's Magician gloves only cover the thumb, index and middle fingers. This is opposite of my drawing glove that only covers the ring and little fingers.Sasha: I think we need a character costume design sheet to highlight the details.3B: I suppose you could crop from the manga page and organize them in PowerPoint.3B: Here I think her arm was too short, so I made a layer group for the arm and glove, so I could move them together.3B: My draft was bad. I should have marked where her should is.Sasha: Added UXP ๐ฎ for marking/admitting that something wasn't right.3B: To draw straight lines, move from elbow or even waist.3B: A real fan would have a lot of details, but everything else is simple so if I draw too much details it would become distractive. So I have to keep it simple.3B: In this case Sasha's Bunny didn't have its own layer, which I regret as I try to add its paw.3B: Now I show how to erase the extra lines using an erase mask instead of an eraser.Sasha: I think my cape should go down more in the back.3B: I think it would be only barely visible from that angle.3B: So those are the lines for Sasha in Panel 1.3B: Next I will draw Zoey first because Sasha and Zoey are the main panels on page 15. The turtle is a type of background, I will draw that last.
โ๏ธ Chapter 16 Page 15 Panel 3 Ink
3B: Here I start the line/inking for Panel 3 by first adding some draft lines to emphasize that Zoey is looking up at Sasha.
3B: I am not sure if that would be obvious viewing Zoey from behind. We shall see.Ledia: I like how the layer group for Zoey is called Sasha.3B: I am using a template and don't bother changing the name. Sasha: But you are adding "Pnl3" at the end.3B: Each of those layer group has a corresponding filter layer higher up on the layer list. If I only rename one of them and something goes wrong, it would be troublesome identifying which filter layer corresponds to it.Sasha: What filter?3B: There is a blur filter on top that I want to apply only on the lines. But only I don't want the shading of each layer group cover that blur effect, so I have a clone of each line layer from from each layer group on top. Then I apply the blur filter on those clones.3B: If I turn off the blur filter it looks like this.Sasha: So that is 3B's secret sauce!Evelyn: It looks cuter and warmer with the filter. ๐3B: Sorry. I said it wrong, that was actually not how it works.3B: The layer groups that we have been drawing on are the ones that are blurred. By doing that the lines are too blurry, so I need to clone the original lines and show them on top again.Sasha: As long as it works.3B: Actually I feel like I talked about this before.3B: I redrew the arm so the bow needs to be repositioned. I lasso the bow from the draft to reposition it.3B: And we now have Zoey drawing an arrow from the quiver.3B: Next is the turtle.
โ๏ธ Chapter 16 Page 15 Panel 2 Ink
3B: With Sasha and Zoey drawn, I can reposition the turtle so that nothing looks weird. In this case I think the turtle can be moved up a little bit.
3B: In similar method, the turtle with Sasha and Red on it is drawn.3B: As you see, I left some of the lines outside the frame. I will use an erase mask on the outer frame so the characters seem bigger.3B: It seems that this page doesn't need panel dividers, so the lines are done.@Manga has advanced to Rank D.Evelyn: Will we continue with shading tomorrow?3B: Shading is really easy though.Evelyn: Is it...? ๐ 3B: To me the harder parts are drafting and lining. But we can continue tomorrow.Evelyn: I find this session very enjoyable. ๐3B thanks all for the company.
Ivy: Updated script maker to not use JQ tag in the end.Ivy: Added MXP to tally.Ivy: Added UXP to tally.

Tonight we paint the line drawing of Chapter 16 Page 15. The process is supposed to be really simple.
3B: Please don't expect too much from this drawing out loud session.
๐จ Chapter 16 Page 15 Painting
๐จ3B: For the manga, I am only using five grey tones for painting. The pages are in grey scale.
3B: The five tones are just even steps from pure white to pure black. So the three tones in the middle are just 25% black, 50% black, and 75% black.3B: Normally when I paint I listen to music. But I don't think I can do that while talking.3B: Let's start with Zoey in the foreground, then it is clear what we don't need to paint.3B: As you see the paint group also has layers. 3B: Because the line drawing has gaps through the line, I use paint to draw the outline before using bucket fill.Zoey: Let's do listen to music... ๐ง3B: The white highlights can all be on the same layer since they are really easy to repaint if needed.3B: And Zoey is painted. Now the turtle.3B: Sometimes what I do is that I just paint over the whole thing with a base grey to make sure that there is no gap between colors.3B: Because I am only painting with a few tones, if I started painting from the bottom layer, sometimes I can't tell when the color of an upper layer is merely showing the color of the bottom. 3B: I will draw Sasha's magic orbs last with a different brush. 3B: After painting the base, you can use that for alpha lock for other layers so the new paint stays within the base.3B: The foreground is painted. For the background I just paint some curved regions because we will put text on them, so I want to keep them simple.3B: I've never drawn glowing orbs before, so this is trial and error...3B: Let's add more sparkles since Faerie Fire is still in effect.3B: The painting is kind of done. Now I put the text over it to see how it goes.Zoey is recognized for the equipment Platinum Arrow.3B: I think the ground needs more magic.3B: I think it is done.

There is now an Activity Log section at the daily status as an alternate place to log XP!
๐StarTree: Please note that this new Activity Log is a prototype. Please don't copy the structure and import credits for previous dates!
๐StarTree: Being enabled is the functionality for Tally to sum XP when the XP attribute specifies a number.
Before: A tag data-QXP-StarTree would only mean one credit.
After: A tag data-QXP-StarTree="10" would count as ten credits!
Transition: At this very moment it only works for QXP. But you may start logging XP in that format because StarTree will implement that for all XP types!
Vivi: We need script maker apps script support for that format.StarTree: StarTree thinks a new column at Script Maker is needed for the value!Vivi: It is approved if you are asking for permission.StarTree: Wee~~!StarTree: The script maker function now accepts an optional fifth column for the XP Count, the background color of that mango! StarTree: The older script maker call with peach color background still functions!Little Red Riding Hood thinks this will be super important for eventually importing all Guild Log XP to the blog.

Once upon a time, there was an app that keeps track of which friend should pay for team lunch...
๐Arcacia: Instead of each friend paying for themself or paying the payer each time, they used a spreadsheet to keep the running tab.
Arcacia: The spreadsheet shows them which friend owes the group the most. That friend can then reduce their debt by paying for team lunch next.
Arcacia: With that system, there is only one payment per meal, to the restaurant. The friends don't need to actually pay each other.!The Quest: Can you make that happen again?
Evelyn: It is a cute concept. ๐Tanya: Does the spreadsheet still exist?Arcacia: Yes it does, but it has been said that it is too difficult to understand.Sasha: Wouldn't that mean someone has to enter the bill to the spreadsheet?Arcacia: Yes.Zoey: I wonder if there is already an app for that. ๐คZoey: I found an app of the exact name, but I think it does something different.Tanya: What is the demand or priority of this quest?Arcacia: At least some people would want to use it if it is easy to use. Evelyn: I hope that it is a cute app.Zoey: There is Splitwise.Tanya: I would say this is quite low priority, since we do have another programming project for Cardinal Quest using Power Apps.Arcacia: I would like to introduce a new XP type ๐ for making gifts, such as this app.Tanya: I am not against anyone making it, for training purpose, or for promoting Arcacianism.Tanya: But it is of lower priority.Evelyn: I think we could switch among different projects, just like we could switch to @Carrot.

This is for making music for posting on Youtube.
[1] Noteworthy Composer
We use Noteworthy Composer to record melodies from electronic keyboard ๐น, then export it as MID file.
To record from a keyboard, we use a Noteworthy Composer project that has a beat pattern on repeat for hundreds of times. This beat pattern serves as the metronome for the recording. We use Channel 10 drumset to make a simple pattern.
The purpose is to record the melody with correct rhythm, because inputting it using mouse and keyboard is much slower.
P4: The volume, instrument, and key/octave can be easily changed once the melody is recorded.P4: If you want to record both hands at once, play them further apart so Noteworthy can record them as different hands. You can easily shift their octaves after recording.P4: If you play the melody wrong during recording, just wait for the next bar and play again. The wrong part can be easily deleted.๐P4: You don't need to know how the whole song should be at this point. The melodies can be rearranged and repeated as needed after each unique section is recorded.
In Noteworthy, delete the errorous parts and shift them to approximately the correct octave, then export the melody (or sections of melody) as MID file.
P4: When the music is exported as MID file, repeat notations are not kept. So there is no need to export with repeats, since they are added in the next software.

Import to MuseScore Notes: Velocity offset 0. Mixer setting: Drum volume: 64. Others: max volume. Export as MP3.

The XP should mean the same value regardless how experienced the quester is.StarTree: StarTree made 60+ changes in the code to implement multiple XP count but doesn't think that that effort is worth 60 XP...!StarTree: Because StarTree just used search and replace...!Ledia: If finding a faster way to do quest gives you fewer XP, then what is the incentive?Tanya: I didn't say you can't log it.โ๏ธCardinal:While discussing at the quest channel, Ledia was ambushed by a jelly queen.

This is a routine check and a special planning session for Power App Quest.
๐ Status Update
๐ฏStarTree: There are 8 open quests, 345 quest hours, 108 side quests, 16 prep quests, and 25 unresolved failures remaining!
Sylvia: Adds {"cmd":"pl","yt":"LpBHdbLiBKs","desc":"๐ง ๆ็ผใใฎในใฟใผใใคใณ"}Sasha: Adds {"cmd":"pl","yt":"Vz_BqxcdHMM","desc":"๐ง ใใผใใปใขใปใฉใคใ"} Casey: Adds a melody to original log.Melody: Adds {"cmd":"pl","yt":"ryAu_NxSgiM","desc":"๐ง Promise"}.Tanya: Adds to original melody.Ledia: Adds to original melody.Casey: Prepares spray bottle for quest.StarTree: There is a question on whether the Master PRC should absorb the checklist!Tanya: Power Apps might absorb both. Let's do that first.@Cardinal has been updated.
๐ฏ Power Apps Quest
๐4 Tanya: The Power Apps Quest is a new information quest that might replace MAP and the master PRC, but unifying the data using Power Apps. To that end there are the following subquests:
[Q1] Stages List (Rank S): Compile a list of all stages for Cardinal Quest.
[Q2] CHK Sharing (Rank S): Prepare CHK to be shared with other teams.
[Q3] Power Apps Notes (Rank S): Transfer Field Notes to Power Apps.
[Q4] Power Apps PRC (Rank S): Transfer Master PRC content to Power Apps.
Tanya: Q1 and Q2 might not be related to Power Apps. But I think it is better to assume that they are related, and first learn what Power Apps can do.StarTree: Signs up for Power Apps. Wee~!Tanya: Checks subscription.Tanya: I think the plan we want might be different. I will confirm. I was told we need a Plan 2 subscription.Tanya: Checks environment.Tanya: Requesting authorization.Tanya: I think for now we can first learn what Power Apps can do.
๐ Power Apps Study
๐ฏTanya: I see about 11 tutorials at the home page. Let's see which one might be the most relevant.
[1][2:12] Canvas: You can make an web app from a blank form, and connect it to data objects.
Black: This seems like user form as in VBA, but the user is using it through the web, so they don't need access to Excel.[2][1:39] : Dataverse is the prefered data object for Power Apps
[3][2:02] : You can linking to SharePoint data.
[4][2:10]: You can link to Excel place at OneDrive.
[5][1:56]: You can link to SQL as data source.
[6]: You can make an app from an image of a form.
[7]: You can make an app from Figma.
StarTree: Adds SXP.Evelyn: It looks like you could make "Whose turn to pay" with Power Apps.Sasha: But is it cute?Evelyn: ๐ Ledia: Professional can be cute. ๐LRRH: Anything that is helpful is cute.Evelyn: Yes. ๐คBlack: Do we know what data source we will use?Tanya: It is SQL.Black: We don't have any existing SQL database.Tanya: I think we are supposed to make what we need, which is the next topic.
๐ฏ [Q1] Stage List
๐ฏTanya: Before making a data source for Power Apps, we can first do sub quests Q1 and Q2. On MAP, there are 31 stages. For each stage we share, we need a description on what belongs to it and its significance. We may also discuss if we need to define more or remove some states.
Tanya: I think the content is best shown on Cardinal Quest page, because there are 31 of them. @StarTree please make a node.StarTree:202302121738|Done!Tanya: Please directly add and describe the stage you are familiar with there.Tanya: Tanya adds REG, Setup, POW, SX, MAC.Evelyn: Evelyn adds BB, LC, XY, CIR, LREFZoey: Zoey addes Desc, ECN, HREF, Layout, GLM, PFN, MG, MPS, NTS, SNDZoey: I've just realized that Quest Description should go before Bulletin Board. So I swapped their order.Casey: I added Part.Evelyn: It is interesting how we actually did a lot of different things for the quest. Ledia: Added HX, CBL, TRLEvelyn: Added PRM.Sasha: Added PO, ARVP4: Added ASM.Sylvia: Added GEMKisaragi: Added Tidy.Tanya: I think [Q1] is complete if no one objects.Ledia: I would prefer if each stage has a three letter acronym.Sasha: There are way too many stages on display at once.Tanya: If you have a stage that does not have a three letter code, please change it. We will make each description into stack style and group them into three phases.@Cardinal has been updated again.

Hey hey hey, nothing beats a puzzle before bed!
๐งฉMikela: There is a prestigious race in Holland that invovles many people and much organization, yet no one knows when it will be held until two days prior the race. Why?
Mikela: This puzzle is on page 195 of 202302050007|Classic Lateral Thinking Puzzles!Zoey: I think it has to do with the weather, such as snow or ice.
๐ Clue: Infrequent Condition
Mikela: The race can only happen in a certain condition, which occurs infrequently.
๐ฌ Discussion
Zoey: I keep my suggestion of something cold, such as ice or snow.Tanya: That seems very reasonable.Sasha: Does having a race on ice or snow take enormous organization? Is it prestigious?Sasha: My keyword is a vehicle, such as a boat or a car.LRRH: My keyword is animal.Evelyn: I like this new format where you could play even if you know the answer by suggesting a keyword. ๐Mikela: Do we have a challenger?Casey: What do you get if you win?Sasha: It is a whole detective level.Casey: And if you lose?Sasha: A worse hit rate.Casey: My hit rate is already below 50%. This seems like a good deal for me. How do we do this?Mikela: So far there are three keywords: cold, vehicle, and animal. You will make a guess on the relevance of each of them. If you get more than half right, then you win!Casey: This is a great deal isn't it? It is basically 50% chance to win.Casey: My guess is Cold, not vehicle, not animal. I think it is prestigious enough if you can just drop anything you do in two-day's notice to participate.Zoey: The cold is a given, but now I think maybe it also involves horse riding, which makes it prestigious. Zoey: *checks her current hit rate which is 82%.* My hit rate is pretty high... At least if I fail I won't de-level.Zoey: Okay I take the challenge and pick both cold and animal, but not vehicle.Tanya: I will choose the same as Zoey. My detective level maxed out at 7. Mikela: Anyone else?Sasha: I am debating if I should really just roll the dice.Zoey: Don't you think the weather being cold is part of it?Sasha: Bias can be bad.Sasha: Okay I will just roll the dice.Zoey: So what is it? XDSasha: I am rolling the dice! It doesn't matter if I roll now or later!Zoey: Are we sure Sasha is not going to cheat? XDTanya: Mikela could roll for Sasha.Zoey: I don't buy it. They are both Magicians. XDZoey: No offense. XDSasha: I would like to ask P4 to roll for me. Three dice.P4: ๐P4: Not cold. With vehicle. With animal.Sasha: I can't believe this... if it is not cold, what makes the event infrequent?Zoey: I think this goes to show that luck doesn't transfer. XDSasha: Maybe I should have asked P4 to roll for herself, then choose what she chooses.Zoey: Well you can't force P4 to play.Sasha: P4, if you win from rolling dice you could get the ๐ icon.Evelyn: Ob...objection. ๐ The ๐ is tied to XP. We shouldn't get XP from gambling. ๐Sasha: This is not gambling, P4 is not losing any XP if she loses. Hit rate is not XP.Sasha: If P4 helps me, her ๐ XP would be for helping someone. "Let people help each other and reward those who do." It is Arcacian. It is XP worthy.Evelyn: I'm sorry. You are right. Mikela: Objection... OVERRULED!Tanya: @StarTree.StarTree: Added โ๏ธ as an XP type!Mikela: May I have ๐งฉ XP? Being the Puzzle Master and all.StarTree: Added ๐งฉ as an XP type!Sasha: I want ๐ฉ XP to represent moments of creating suspense or surprise, or entertainment. They belong to the EPIC C-community category.StarTree: Added ๐ฉ XP type!Sasha: P4 please roll again for yourself to help this unlucky Sasha.P4: P4 wants to help Sasha.P4: Not cold, with vehicle, no animal.Sasha: Oh no, it makes even less sense. ๐ณ๏ธZoey: But with vehicle was your suggestion. XDSasha: I did it with the cold!Mikela: Okay, let's see if we have a winner!
๐ SOLUTION
๐ฉMikela: And the solution is...
Mikela: It is Elfstedentocht where the participants skate on natural ice through 11 historical cities!Mikela: Our sole winner this time is Casey! Congratulations! ๐Zoey: It hurts. XDCasey: Well, it is easier if you have nothing to lose. Mikela: And for their courages to face challenges, Casey, Zoey, Tanya, Sasha, and P4 all get another ๐! Cheers!Mikela thanks all for playing!Casey: Where is my lion?Tanya: I think we can define the lion as XP for a show of courage.StarTree: Added ๐ฆ XP!StarTree: No one has earned a ๐ฆ XP yet!Casey: We shall see.
StarTree: Adds INNER Start and End to Apps Script.

I think there was an error in the scoring for the puzzle last night.
Tanya: While Casey won by being 100% correct, Zoey and I also won because we were right 2/3.
Scoring
Tanya: While Casey by being 100% correct, Zoey and I also won because we were right 2/3. But it was recorded as a loss for the two of us.
Zoey: Ooo~ I didn't lose! XDTanya: @StarTree? @Mikela?StarTree: StarTree doesn't know if that was the intention!Sasha: Wasn't the rule the closest one get a win? Casey was the closest yesterday.Evelyn: I think it would be more relaxing if we are not playing against each other.Casey: As long as I still win...Evelyn: And P4 was helpful to Sasha yesterday. ๐คZoey: From 3 wrong to 2 wrong--which is still a loss. XDP4: ๐Sasha: I need a recognition.Sasha is recognized for the aura Abysmal Luck.Mikela: I'll let Sasha decide on the scoring because it is tied to detective level, which is not in my department. Cheers!Sasha: Well, then Sasha wins as long as someone wins.Sasha: Just kidding.Tanya: How about all winners get the win, but the top winner gets the crown ๐?Sasha: That is a great idea! StarTree please make that happen.StarTree: Done!Zoey: Should we or could we have another puzzle? Now that the difficulty has become quite reasonable.Mikela: Yes you may!
๐งฉ Puzzle: Dollar Murder
๐งฉMikela: A man cheated a woman of a sum of $5. When the woman found out, she killed him. They were not poor. Her defense lawyer argued that she was justified for the murder, and many people agreed with her. Why?
Mikela: This puzzle is on page 194 of 202302050007|Classic Lateral Thinking Puzzles!๐Clue 1:Mikela: The man failed to keep a promise.๐Clue 2:Mikela: He had not used the $5 as agreed.๐Clue 3:Mikela: The woman found herself considerably worse off than she had expected.Evelyn: I don't think we should play this puzzle. ๐Casey: This one is too easy.Sasha: Mikela please screen the puzzle first, for one that is appropriate and challenging.Mikela: I don't think the solution is what you might be thinking. But by a vote of three, this puzzle is shelved!
๐งฉ Dear Self
๐งฉMikela: A man wrote and signed a check of $1000 from his checkbook. Although he has enough money in his account for the check to be cashed, he was charged with fraud. Why?
Mikela: This puzzle is on page 194 of 202302050007|Classic Lateral Thinking Puzzles!๐Clue 1:Mikela: He intended to defraud.๐Clue 2:Mikela: The check looked fine, his signature was perfect, but it would not have proven valid.Zoey: This seems pretty hard.Sasha: So. If we just suggest easy keywords then we would win.Mikela: There is no challenge if the choices are too easy! As for the win, that is up to you!Tanya: The puzzle didn't say who the check pays. I propose the keyword "Payee".Zoey: Good keyword!Sasha: We tend to be right with whichever idea that came first. What if we just choose this one?Mikela: I don't detect any challenge in this case so no one will get a crown.Sasha: But Tanya could be wrong.Mikela: Then I add a keyword: dead. You could think of it as the payee is dead. But is it true or false?Casey: If he wants to get the money then he needs to be able to cash it somehow. I think Impersonation is involved.Mikela: With that we have three keywords: Payee, death, and impersonation. Now I would consider this challenging.Evelyn: I think the fraud is that the man will pay a victim in exchange for something, then the check would be proven invalid. So I think it is a No on all three.Mikela: Are you taking the challenge?Evelyn: No... it is just a suggestion. ๐ Zoey: That is quite possible. ๐คCasey: You only need two right to win. I'll take the challenge with no on all three.Sasha: What is the theory about the payee?Tanya: Such as when the payee is also himself or an accomplice in a scheme such as money laundering. Sasha: This sounds too complicated. I don't think death is relevant, for the other two keywords I can take one hit. So I choose Payee as the only relevant keyword.Zoey: I... will... side... with... Evelyn. Not relevant on all three.Tanya: I stay with Payee. Same as Sasha.Sasha: I want to know why Evelyn't wouldn't play.Evelyn: I just find this a little too stressful. ๐ Since there is nothing we can do to know more and have a better guess.P4: This time P4 stays with Evelyn by not choosing.Evelyn: ๐Sasha: Does this counts as furapy?Mikela: I think that is all the players this time. Let's see if we have any winner...!
Mikela: And the SOLUTION is...
Mikela: The man used Ink that vanishes in an hour! None of the keywords were relevant! Everyone who played wins!Mikela: And Casey and Zoey get the crown! Congratulations! ๐@Puzzle advances to Rank B.Zoey: That was a good puzzle.Sasha: Evelyn don't you feel that pain in your stomach when you could have won but didn't play?Evelyn: Not in particular. ๐ Sasha: I have an idea. What if in a situation like this where Evelyn's theory is right, but she just doesn't "gamble", she still gets a win but just without the yellow heart for taking the challenge?Zoey: I think that seems fair. But what if her theory is wrong. Does she not get a loss?Sasha: If we do that she won't even talk. Tanya: Then the hit ratio will be biased. If you want to track when someone's theory is right, you also need to track whey they are wrong.Sasha: But if we track it only when the speak stands by their message, wouldn't the hit rate also be wrong? The stats won't show who is actually right most of the time.Tanya: Evelyn, is it stressful if we always track whether your theory is right?Evelyn: I hope that you get the stats you need. But I hope that I don't know about it since it would make me feel a little self-conscious. ๐ Casey: Supposably Evelyn was wrong about the puzzle that we vetoed. So were Sasha and I. Sasha: Okay. On second thought, let's not account for hit rate everytime someone predicts.Tanya: I think we can distinguish the context. In the vetoed puzzle, Evelyn wasn't really predicting the puzzle was inappropriate. She was merely sounding an alarm, or raising a concern that it might be inappropriate.Tanya: In the checkbook puzzle, what she said was a result of a different thought process where she weighed and drew a conclusion from information available.Tanya: I think we can automatically track the second type in puzzle settings.Sasha: In this case I value the player's feeling more than my desires to get stats. So I rule that we don't track win-loss unless the player commits.Sasha thanks all for the game.

This is a continuation of the Law Game.
Natalie: Please be aware that the content may not be appropriate for children.Natalie: Please note that we play this game from a philosophical standpoint. The answers are not meant to be representative of all jurisdictions.
โ๏ธ [181] Retreat requirement
๐๏ธNatalie: Ann and Bob meet at a public sidewalk one day. Ann physically attacks Bob and Bob reasonably believes that Ann is about to kill him or do him serious bodily harm. Even through Bob could safely run away, he shoots Ann with a gun. Under the majority rule, is Bob liable for Ann's death because he could have retreated safely?
Casey: I think the majority rule is you have to retreat. But I would prefer laws that say you don't have to.Fina: In Reciprocative law you don't have to retreat. A society with a law that requires retreat would have to be an Opt-in society. Otherwise it would violate self-care.Natalie: The majority rule is that there is no duty to reteat. Bob has a valid self-defense claim.Casey: My faith in the law has restored a little bit.
๐ฌ Score Keeping
๐ฏNatalie: This is a question mainly to @Ivy: Should we keep XP tags in the Laws node, or only in chat?
Ivy: It should only be in chat. The reason is that the chat has an approximate timestamp, and the content of an information node is often rearranged. No one can tell who did what when the text is rearranged, combined, or removed. Ivy: If you log it in chat, then your XP record is always saved.Natalie: Moved XP tags at the node to the chat thread.
๐๏ธ [1] Elements of a Crime
Natalie: In general, what are the elements of a crime?
Sasha: That the suspect intends to commit the crime and actually tries to do it?Natalie: Correct! It is Act, Mental State, Concurrence, and Causation.

Log Fall Dungeon
๐ฏ
Log Fall Dungeon has not have much activity since December. I would like to continue.
๐ Topic Selection
๐Tanya: I am starting at the bottom of the staging list, which is the topic of "Self-serving definition."
LRRH: The discussion was two months old. Do we need to reply?Tanya: I think it is okay without replying, but we need to resolve the underlying conflict. So please describe the conflict.
๐ฌ Summary
Context๐๏ธLRRH: Someone was suggesting that compassion is a solution of poverty. Then I pointed out the difference between a desirable situation and the actions leading to that situation.
LRRH: For example, when toilet paper is in shortage, a store decision to limit purchase to 1 per person is an enforcement type solution. The store does something to stop people from not able to buy any.LRRH: In reply, the OP Michael said "Enforcing a limit of 1 set per person" is a compassionate solution.LRRH: So I asked would a solution to "race to the store and buy it before other can buy" a solution based on compassion. LRRH: In reply the OP again says that it is a solution based on compassion.LRRH: To me that suggests that they don't actually have a way to tell whether a solution is based on compassion or not. The people discussing don't have a concept that their use of adjectives are self-serving.LRRH: So I bookmarked that so we could have a node explaining what a self-serving definition is and how to spot them.StarTree: (Added URL to script maker)Evelyn: I think this topic is quite similar to that in 202208011038|Black-or-white.Tanya: Let's first define what a self-serving definition is. At the 202209202305|Self-serving bias node.Tanya: Upgraded self-serving bias node to stack style.LRRH: I think it is, "You define a term, or avoid defining a term so that your statement is always right, and in doing so renders the word meaningless."Tanya: I put it as, "A self-serving definition is a lack of objective definition where the speaker asserts that a term is meaningful but fail to define when it cannot be applied. Self-serving definition renders a term meaningless in a discussion, and it is a sign that the speaker is having a self-serving bias."LRRH: I like how a self-serving definition is actually a lack of definition.Tanya: Added a comparison section.LRRH: Adding an example about toilet paper.LRRH: Explaining the example.LRRH: I think it is better if I link to this discussion instead of the twitter post. Since we explain the context here.Tanya: Agreed.

๐ [2] Crime vs Tort
๐๏ธNatalie: What is the difference between a crime and a tort?
Zoey: A tort is an infringement against someone's right. I think in the way we define it, crimes are also infringement against someone's right. So...๐คNatalie: A tort is a civil wrong against an individual, while a crime is a public wrong against the state.Zoey: But is it true that a wrong against a state is a wrong against an individual? If you chase down to the actual stakeholder that the state is protecting.Natalie: When you damages someone's property by accident, you are liable to the damages but you are not a "criminal". Tort laws determine if the defendant is liable, and how much they are liable for.Zoey: Okay. I understand. Tort does not require an intention to violate someone's rights. Natalie: That is correct! The person is being held liable is not necessarily punishable.
๐๏ธ [3] Theories of Punishment
Natalie: What theories of punishment are applicable to ciminal law?
Tanya: Is proportionality a theory, or consideration?Natalie: The question can be rephrased as "what are justisfications that a crime deserve to be punished?"Tanya: To deter future crimes.Natalie: Correct! The card lists six reasons, almost all of them can be boiled down to "prevention of crime."
@Paladin advances to Rank B.
๐ Formatting the node
๐ฏNatalie: I think the list of definitions will become too long to view soon. I want to list or search them. Any ideas?
Black: TSN HTML has a text filter. As you type in the textbox, it filters the list and hides entries that do not have the entered keyword.Natalie: I'll look into it, thanks! ๐Natalie: Natalie studies how that code works. Adds function TextSearchPN.Tanya: I would like to have text search for Dungeon also.Natalie: Let's study together! ๐Natalie: In TSN, the search is mainly done by a function called MainFilter. That function takes the argument of a keyword, and a DOM type. Then it scans the entire page for each DOM of that type. If its innerHTML doesn't have the keyword, then it becomes hidden, otherwise its display is set to "".Natalie: In my case I need to specify which section it should scan, so I will make a function TextFilter that takes three arguments.Natalie: In TSN the input box has its own ID. I wonder if I could avoid that. Yes! It worked. But the filter itself is not entirely working. It is showing too much. Why is that?Natalie: For example, if I search for the letter "z", it does not hide the 'Defending Others' section. That section doesn't have the letter z in it. I don't think.Tanya: It is matching the class name "mbpuzzle".Natalie: Changing TextFilter to scan innerText instead of innerHTML.Natalie: If i search for upper case "E", it shows the "S - Z" section blank. But if I search for lower case "e", it shows "S - Z" section with content. Why?Tanya: Adding console.log. I discovered that the display is actually toggling. Execution can enter the IF statement even when the value of the search is "-1".Natalie: Checking the type of the returned value: It is a number.Tanya: Confirming whether the issue only happens when the input box is clicked, but not when a letter is input: Not true. It happens in both cases.Natalie: It seems to happen to any uppercase letter used in the search box.Black: It happens on lowercase letter also, if you just hit the shift key at the search box.Tanya: There is a strange behavior where if you just type "attacker" there is no match, but if you type "attackers" then backspace the 's', the matches are correct. Then as soon as you hit the shift key, the result is wrong.Black: Let's add a submit button.Black: Confirmed that the issue doesn't happen with the original TSN HTML code.Natalie: Changing TextFilter to scan TextContent instead of innerText.Natalie: Finally it is working!Natalie: I want to make the code not hide the spacers at the end.Tanya: Added an attribute to skip the spacers.Natalie: Nice!Natalie: I wonder if the alphabetical headings are necessary... Added QueryAllP2NH, ShowLP2NH. I think it looks slightly better.Tanya: I think it looks better with the alphabetical heading for now. But I think it would look better if the code automatically distribute the result evenly into three columns.Natalie: You might be right. Changing it back to with headers now. ๐

Log Fall Dungeon
๐ฏ
Log Fall Dungeon is open.
Tanya: Let's do the last topic at the staging area: Loaded Question. The node for the summary is 202208011031|this.
๐ฏ Summary and Objective
Context๐๏ธLRRH: In the begining I was stating that RBE has a hierarchy because a person cannot opt-out. Then Marlow said that one way to implement RBE is through holacracy. So I said holacracy would also violate autonomy unless it lets people opt-out. Then he said that I was using loaded assumptions, but I was just pointing out an umbrella term includes the bad stuff unless they are excluded by definition.
๐ฏLRRH: My request is to add content to distinguish what is and is not a loaded question.
โ๏ธ Example of a Loaded Question
Claim: I am anti-hierarchy and support direct democracy.
Question: When will you stop using majority rule to rob the minority?
Tanya: The above question is a loaded question when the claimant did not use majority rule to rob the minority.Tanya: If the claimant did in fact use majority rule to rob the minority, then the question is not a loaded question.
โ๏ธ Example of a non-loaded question
Claim: I am anti-hierarchy and I support direct democracy.
Question: Direct democracy allows using majority rule to rob the minority. For a given decision, a person in the majority is in an upper hierarchy compared to those in the minority. How do you be anti-hierarchy and support direct democracy at the same time?
LRRH: This is not a loaded question because it is not saying that the claimant robbed the minority using a majority rule. It is asking the claimant to clarify and explain what they meant by the terms when they use those terms.
๐ Deployment
๐๏ธLRRH: I think the concept this time, that a hierarchy can be top-heavy, is worth sharing.
Tanya: I agree that it is share-worthy, but perhaps not until the sighting and staging areas are clear.LRRH: Wouldn't that take a year to clear?Tanya: ...LRRH: I think it is okay to post it because the Dungeon System is suppose to triage and react to what is important. Or even if we don't triage, we could just respond with a queue. It might take a year to reply but that is okay.LRRH: At least someone else might benefit from the concept while we are slowly clearing the queue.Tanya: @Evelyn?Evelyn: What exactly do you want to post?LRRH: "World Peace Concept: A direct democracy is not necessarily free of hierarchy. It can be an upside-down hierarchy where the majority oppresses the minority."Evelyn: I think to post that we need show the alternative at the same time so people know what is "better."LRRH: The term we have been using is Choice Democracy. "Compared to Choice Democracy where each person may decide their share and freely collaborate with those who want to decide together."Evelyn: I think we should upgrade the 202209211022|Choice Democracy node before posting this concept.Tanya: Agreed. Either now or we put that on a queue.Evelyn: I would perfer to continue since we are still fresh on the topic. ๐
@Dungeon is now Rank B.
โ๏ธ Direct vs Choice Democracy
Evelyn: Added a section for the comparison at Choice Democracy node.LRRH: Added comparison content and explanation.Evelyn: Added a CSS class mbRef for displaying references.LRRH: Should that node be upgraded to the new format?Evelyn: I think we should let Ivy decide.LRRH: I think it should be upgraded since I am about to post and need a screenshot.Evelyn: I think it is better to minimize the change so the node can be close to what ivy wants.Zoey: Zoey sees irony since the node is about choice democracy.LRRH: A node in the blog is not necessarily a person's individual share. We are supposed to change them as needed.Zoey: @Ivy, can we change the style of your 202209211022|node?Ivy: Yes. But...Ivy: ... don't go crazy changing all of them since I think there is a better way of restructuring the nodes. It might take some time to explain separation of data from presentation.LRRH: Little Red upgrades the node.Evelyn: I think we need to keep a link to the "master node" with the best style for others to copy.Ivy: You do notice that the best style you have now shows the title three times.Tanya: Tanya takes a screenshot.Evelyn: I never noticed it before... ๐ Tanya: It is because the other nodes don't normally repeat the title for the drop cap.LRRH: I Tweeted.LRRH: Could we fix the duplicated titles so I can post the link to the node also?
@Dungeon is now Rank A.
๐ Duplicated Title
Ivy: For the blog, the data should be separated from the presentation. A while back Sasha had the right idea but that never caught on. That might need to be a separate topic to discuss...
๐กIvy: For the duplicated title, what might make more sense now is to expand the inner frame all the way just after the outer frame, or not having an outerframe at all. Without an outerframe, I think the node viewer code need to change.
StarTree: (Added PhotoXP and LemonXP!)Zoey: This sounds like a hard quest. Something is going to break.Ivy: You could just make a test node.StarTree: There is now a 202302201503|Test Node, Wee~~!Evelyn: I think we will remove flexshow at the outer frame and see what happens if the outer frame is just a second line. ๐Evelyn: I think it doesn't look as good without the top frame. But it could just be me not used to seeing it like that. Evelyn: And macro is not run for the links at the bottom. ๐Tanya: On the daily display the node is exapanded, but should have its content hidden by default.Evelyn: I fixed the display at the day, but now the node is not expanded in viewer. Evelyn: I don't understand what is going on in the viewer code. ๐ณ๏ธTanya: @StarTree please fix it.StarTree: Upgraded ShowNextInline.StarTree: StarTree makes a backup for the script. Wee~~!StarTree: Upgraded FlexShow!StarTree: StarTree made it work without changing the viewer/LoadArchivePostEl code!Evelyn: It looks nice now! ๐Tanya: We should test what happens when it opens a choice node.StarTree: Upgraded QueryAllEl to accept a third argument!LRRH: Could you shift the card up and right so that there is less gap?StarTree: Updated media width limit for mbCardRM to 500px and removed margin of mbCharCard!LRRH: I think we can update the actual Choice Democracy node.StarTree: Done!LRRH: StarTree please change the content of the test node so that it is obvious that it is for testing.StarTree: Done! (And added ShowEl.)

For the 202302160912|Japanese node I added code to show how JSON string can be used.
๐Ivy: At the Archive, there is a container entry with a section of macro data written in JSON.
Ivy: When such a node is displayed, the macro function formats that data into html.
Ivy: At the Japanese node, instead of embedding the text and translation there, the node just queries the archive for data-ja.
Ivy: This way you can also see the mini diary entry at the calendar.
Evelyn: It looks really good ๐Vivi: Your node doesn't have a way to collapse.Ivy: I can make it so when you click on the avatar it resets.Vivi: I think that will be good.Ivy: @StarTree please support.StarTree: Done!Evelyn: I find this to be really cute.

The case continues. Let's see what we've got.
James: Scanning mail. Removed junk mails from email account.
๐จ DAY 3
๐ฏJames: Today we received by mail the same case document from the plaintiff's law firm that the ISP forwarded us before. This means they now know who the subscriber is. There is not yet an order to change the case title.
James: I believe the next step is an informal meeting should we just contact the law firm and tell them who to sue and contact instead?Evelyn: Did we already talk to the actual offender?Kisaragi: He said he wanted to get it over with and doesn't want us to be caught in between.Evelyn: ๐Tanya: According to the order, the plaintiff had just done step 4 out of 14. They are required to send this copy. The the informal conference will be scheduled through the court.Tanya: The informal conference can be initiated by either party. Tanya: I think that instead of contacting the law firm, we could contact the court to let them know that we want a conference.Ivy: I agree.James: Then we shall contact the court by email. Who would like to write that email?Kisaragi: I will write it.Kisaragi: It is sent.
Little Red Riding Hood thanks all for taking care of the case.@Detective is now Rank A.
Ledia: The scoreboard has very similar functionalties as the roster. So I think it would be appropriate for @Mira to take the lead in upgrading it.
Ledia: I don't have a full list or a plan of everything I want from the scoreboard, but one thing I want is a button that tallys all the XP for display.Tanya: I think in general it is better to list the intended changes then pick an order that will be easier to complete all of them.Ledia: I would like to make sure that someone is done each round. So let's make this change, then if we have time left we can list the desired changes for nex time.Tanya: I see.Ledia: If I understand it correctly, all I need to add is a for loop to go through each entries and run the update code.Tanya: I think it would be faster if you just ask StarTree to do it and read what she ends up changing. After that you can do the next one when you know how to do it.Ledia: StarTree doesn't really comment the code though.Tanya: @StarTree please do it and tell us what you are doing.StarTree: Wee~~!
โญ Adding a button to refresh all scores
๐กStarTree: For the button to address the div that contains the roster, StarTree puts the button in a div above the roster container div, so that the onclick function call only needs one argument "this."
StarTree: StarTree creates a function XP_TallyAllPN.StarTree: In XP_TallyAllPN, StarTree uses a while loop to loop through each child of the roster frame.StarTree: Since the roster frame is a flex frame and we end it with two spacer div, the code will need to skip those. But in any case, only member div has a name attribute, so the code skips those without a name.StarTree: StarTree creates a function XP_DisplayEL.StarTree: The original function XP_Display assumes that the viewer clicked on the avatar image. From there it goes up one level to the parent. StarTree now makes a function where "this" is the frame itself!StarTree: In the original XP_Display code, the JQuery data is first loaded to a div within the avatar. StarTree wonder if that is necessary wants to see if the code would still work without it.StarTree: StarTree replace the "physical" cache with a virtual one and it still works. Wee~~!StarTree: Modified XP_Display to call XP_DisplayEL and added comments.StarTree: And it is done!Ledia: Nice! Now I have a template for the next few changes I want to make.StarTree: Wee~~!Ledia: It is a little surprising that this function seems to be faster than the Tally for Clipboard button.Tanya: Could it be because the cache is no longer "physical"?Ledia: Let's time it before and after.Ledia: Tally using physical cache: 20.5 seconds.Ledia: Tally using virtual cache: 20.8 seconds.Ledia: Tally All (with display): 21.3 seconds.Ledai: I suppose I was mistaken.@Mira is now Rank A.
๐ Listing further changes
๐๏ธTanya: In general we keep a list of desired upgrades so that we can prioritize and allow people who did not come up with the idea to implement the idea for XP.
Tanya: The scoreboard node already has a definition ๐ section. I think the todo list can be there.Ledia: I'll just add another expandable section because the the ๐ section is its own node for the XP Legends.Ledia: I added seven quests.

Jelly Queen quest continues.
Cardinal: 226 remains in Region 1. 55 in Region 2.
Zoey: No target goal today. Let's just clear some of them.
Zoey: Zoey starts near Evelyn's garden.Ledia: Ledia found 4 similar ones around the roster.Zoey: Got 1 around Cardinal camp.Ledia: Got 1 on the way to Arena.Zoey: Got 2 toward Arena.Ledia: Found a spawn point of six at 202209171519|Pirate Bay.๐Ledia: Zoey, I think we have a problem. If we continue the way we are doing, there are way more than 226 jellies remaining to clear. There are jelly queens that can summon order jellies.
Cardinal: Ledia discovers that 139 of the 226 in Region 1 are summoner Jelly Queens.Ledia: What exactly should we do with them? Meticulously deal with them one by one, or...?Zoey: Let's seal them instead of instead of dealing with what they summon. I think it is okay if someone intentionally unseal them when they are there.Zoey: I think the main point is they should be blocking the road.Zoey: Zoey seals the one at 202209171519|Pirate Bay.Ledia: That looks like a "we'll fight another day."Zoey: You are right, but let's do that because the effect is different. After sealing them we will fight only when we want to.Zoey: Found 21 that fit Fina's Wrap pattern.Zoey: Wrapped 21 Jelly Queens.Zoey: Seals eight more.Zoey: Casted another wrap spell.Zoey: Zoey seals another one.Zoey: I think we can stop today. Cardinal, status please.Cardinal: Region 1 has 174 Jelly Queens remaining.Zoey: Found 52 that can be wrapped.Zoey: Zoey casts hunter's mark on them and releases barrage.Zoey: Found another 9.Zoey: Hunter's Mark Barrage.Zoey: Zoey takes out another one. I think the remaining ones are all singles and need to be deal with individually.Cardinal: Region 1 has 112 Jelly Queens remaining.Zoey: "We shall continue." XD@Seed is now Rank A.

This is for the draft of Chapter 16 page 16. Zoey is about to or will have fired an arrow at Sasha. What is going to happen?
๐๏ธSasha: I pretend to panic but am actually ready to nuke Zoey if she shoots at me, because that would be an Ad Hominem attack.
Zoey: I was shooting at your chaos spheres. You said people simply don't know the future, but in most cases our current guesses about the future are not wrong. Zoey: So the platinum arrows will hit the chaos sphere also.3B: This might be for the next panel, but what happens when your arrow hits Sasha's orb?Zoey: How about one bursts, one goes through and hits Sasha, and the third does something surprising?Sasha: If you know it could go through you are not supposed to shoot. Zoey: I want to see what happens.3B: For the arrow that goes through an orb, what would happen to the orb?Sasha: Since the arrow didn't hit, it should turn into something bad that people created when they were trying to do good.Sasha: And we recently have a perfect example: The Jelly Queens!Sasha: The story was that people created public portals leading to an unintentional result that monsters also got through and spread everywhere.Sasha: Whereas if people focused on themselves and didn't try to make it easy for everyone, the situation wouldn't have happened. The Jellies would have stayed local. The portals would open slower, and thus giving people more time to discover that it was a bad idea.3B: I think there is enough content for at least one page.Ledia: I like how the content suddenly becomes current.Zoey: I think we will probably finish dealing with the Jellies before these pages are done.Zoey: And that would be a counter to your argument: You said if people just mind their own business, bad things won't appear as quickly. On the other hand, if people help each other, bad things will end quicker.Ledia: And I believe we would agree that specialization is a key to efficiency, and cooperation is a key allowing people to specialize compared to those who are isolatedLedia: So even in the argument that bad things will happen less when people mind their own business, advances in civilization comes from people cooperating3B: I'll save that for next time.@Manga is now Rank A.3B thanks all for the content.

The Law Game continues.
Natalie: Please be aware that the content may not be appropriate for children.Natalie: Please note that we play this game from a philosophical standpoint. The answers are not meant to be representative of all jurisdictions.
๐๏ธ [3] Felony vs Misdemeanor
๐๏ธNatalie: What is the typical distinction between felonies and misdemeanors in most jurisdictions?
Zoey: Felonies are more serious. So, you can go to prison for felonies, but not misdemeanors.Tanya: A felony is a willful violation of someone's rights. A misdemeanor is the breaking of a rule without an immediate victim.Natalie: Zoey's answer is closer to the common definition: A felony is a crime punishable by imprisonment exceeding one year or by death. A misdemeanor is a crime punishable by a fine or imprisonment of one year or less.Zoey: Why the one year cutoff? That seems so arbitrary. ๐คTanya: The difference seems administrative instead of philosophical.Natalie: Also, typically battery and assault are misdemeanors. Misdemeanors can also have a direct victim.Zoey: I think I like Tanya's philosophical distinction better. How much a person can be punished should be the effect that follows the philosophical difference in the nature of the crime.Natalie: There is also infraction, which does not have any imprisonment. Felony and misdemeanor both can have jail sentences. They differ in seriousness.Tanya: I see.Tanya: I would say in Hospitalianism, felonies are crime that involve willful intrusion. By reciprocation, and self-defense/castle doctrine, a willful intruder can be reciprocated by imprisonment or death because the victim has no responsibility to ensure that the offender will not commit the crime again.Tanya: A misdemeanor is the offender breaking a demeanor rule (a code of conduct) of an opt-in zone. A misdemeanor warrants revoking one's membership of the zone, and being expelled from the zone. For example, a hate crime in a zero-hate zone is a misdemeanor. Tanya: When the offender's membership is revoked, if they still try to get in they become an intruder. That is a felony.Tanya: An infraction would be a crime that does not warrant revoking one's membership or imprisonment. Natalie: The page is coming along quite nicely! ๐@Paladin is now Rank A.
๐ฐ Multicolumn Style
๐ก3 Natalie: I wasn't satisfied with the alphabetical categories at the Criminal Laws node so I looked up and found how to wrap text by columns. I am experimenting with it and I think the code will need to check the screen width to determine how many columns to split. If this works well I think it will be easier than using flex.
Tanya: This is a great find.Natalie: I am debating whether there should be alphabet headings. I think it looks a little odd without.Ledia: This change is much needed I think. Nice upgrade indeed.Zoey: I think the alphabetical list at Philosophies should be like this.Natalie: I think the list at philosophies look better at the moment. That's why I am debating whether this list should have alphabetical headings. But if I add them, I can't guarantee that the heading and its first entry won't be on separate columns. That would also look strange.Natalie: Hey, I figured out how to indent!Natalie: Experimenting with different styles for the letter mark.Fina: I would nominate @Paladin for Rank S for the search function and the three column display. Even if it is not completely finished.Natalie: Thanks! ๐@Paladin is recognized as Rank S.StarTree: (Added BEST tag to script maker!)Vivi: StarTree please fix the multicolumn format for phone.StarTree: StarTree will call that class mbMC3!StarTree: The class mbMC3 does not include the indentation!Vivi: And please link to this from the Test Node.StarTree: Done!StarTree: (Upgrades Criminal Law node to the latest style. Upgraded the section Affirmative Defense to the latest style.)

Is the monthly chapter ranking a commitment or a statistics?
Tanya: All chapters have reached Rank A at the moment, but earlier in the month, I made a note to confirm whether that monthly ranking represents a commitment or is it merely a diagnostic.
LRRH: I think there is a commitment for each chapter to reach Rank A per month, while reaching Rank S is optional.LRRH: The requirement to rank up to rank A is quite mechanical. There should be no shortage of quests to do for them.LRRH: And anyone can rank it up. It doesn't need to be the main person looking after the chapter.Tanya: I think this explanation needs to have its own node or be part of 202210122112|Scoring Rules.LRRH: I think I'll put it in 202211161002|Chapter Scoring with place level.LRRH: I clarified that there is no rule that a chapter needs to be at least Rank A by the end of each month. It is the result of individual member(s) who decide to make that happen.Tanya: I consider my question answered.๐Tanya: Next I notice the little box at the guild that has quest notes.
LRRH: It is cute isn't it?Tanya: That box should be empty because paper notes should be entered to Guild Log instead.LRRH: Yes. But no one really checks the guild log. But people want to clear the box of physical paper notes.Tanya: Let's have a better process for dealing with them.Ledia: I think we have a 202206231035|process. The first step is to enter them to Guild Log so that they can be sorted and completed by batch.Tanya: I agree with that process.LRRH: But the fact is that once they are entered in the Guild Log, they become forgotten. The Guild Log tasks grew by about 100 in January. This month we have the paper box and it is stable.Tanya: I see.Tanya: I think we should sort and triage the paper notes, instead of having them all be in the same box.Tanya: I grouped them into seven groups. I cleared one of them. Now six remaining.Tanya: Finished another group. Five groups remaining.Tanya: The remaining groups are: Music, Wish (Japanese), Board, Mira, Seed (JQ Quest)Zoey: Could we just let them build until next month? then we can jump start next month.Tanya: What do you mean by jump start?Zoey: The ones we left on paper are normally current and not too hard to complete. When March starts and the ranking is reset, it is easy to start with those.Tanya: I see. Then I will just clear the ones I can clear: The Japanese ones.Ivy: Earlier I made a macro <ll> for the translation, but on second thought I think all macro should be called "macro" and be distinguished by the value of cmd in the JSON string.Tanya: @StarTree could you make that change before I add to the archive?StarTree: (Modified Archive, MMInner, MacroLL) Done!Tanya: How should I log credits if I translated a line that Black put on paper?Ivy: Please use the Guild Log.Tanya: Understood.Tanya: Added "Divide and conquer".StarTree: (Made LL node displayable by itself)!Tanya: StarTree please add french to the script.StarTree: Done!Tanya: StarTree, the description and the English are often the same. Could you make English the default description?StarTree: Done! (And added DEBUG function)๐ฏTanya: @Black, there was a note about Page 12 and Page 14. What did you want to do about them?
Black: I was wondering if we should add things we want to say in Japanese that matches the lessons in the textbook. Black: For example, page 12 is teaching ใใ and page 14 is teaching ~ใฆใใ. But I couldn't think of a sentance at the moment.Tanya: I think we can treat them as a hit list. It is a list of terms in the style of Natalie's multicolumn style. It shows all grammar terms and whether we have an example for it.Black: I think that would be helpful.Tanya: Made 202302252025|Grammar Study List node. (Updated Query no record messaage.)Tanya: Designing the layout to display the meaning.Tanya: Added three sections in grammar.Tanya: @StarTree, could you make the search list to occupy the left 1/3 of the area, and the description the next 2/3?StarTree: StarTree has no idea until she tries!Tanya: It's all yours.StarTree: Added ShowLPSN. Testing. Adding macro command Wide. Added GuessContainerWidth. Upgraded mbRef format. Adding sub attributes to Wide command. Adding flex attribute to Wide command.StarTree: Upgrading macro cmd PIN format.StarTree: Added PrepLPSN, ShowPrep. Testing.Tanya thanks all for the help.

Two resolutions seem to be falling behind. Let's catch up.
๐บ Promotion Destinations
Evelyn: This quest is for making free music posting monthly. It says the quest involves designing the posting.
Evelyn: StarTree could you make a node for this quest?StarTree: Would it need the search function format?Evelyn: I'm sorry I don't know what should be in the node yet. Please make the usual one. ๐StarTree: Updating the test node with the latest changes from 202302252025|Grammar List. Making backup. Made 202302261915|node!Tanya: StarTree please also update the Visibility quest node to the latest.Evelyn: In the meantime let's think about what should be on the Poster Quest node.StarTree: (Fixed a wrong link at Visibility node. Upgrading node to latest stack style.)Tanya: I think we need to know where we are posting so we could design the poster accordingly.Tanya: We also need to identify where the posters should lead to.Sasha: I want to lead them to our Youtube Arcacian playlist, because I want to know how youtube views affect Google hits. I know it is not entirely scientific since we don't know if someone viewed the playlist by clicking on the link of the poster/card.Evelyn: I think another destination would be the Arcacian Quest Awards node. I think it would help people see what policies follow the Arcacian principle.Tanya: Let's list the destinations. These are where we want the viewer to visit after seeing the poster.Sasha: Added link to Originals playlist at the Originals node.StarTree: Upgraded spacer to have an order of 99999999.Black: How about "Whose turn to pay"?Evelyn: I think we should include that in the destination list although it is not ready for people to go there.Tanya: Evelyn, the destination link you added is actually for organizations, not policies. I added a link to policies.Evelyn: I'm sorry, I will change mine.Zoey: Maybe not the first link, but the philosophy node for Arcacianism should be a destination.LRRH: How about the carrot cake, japanese node and fortune cookie node?Ledia: It sounds like every node can be a destination, it is more of a matter of which one we want to promote first with a poster.LRRH: I think happiness clinic should be on the list.Evelyn: And Manga.Tanya: I have an idea. I think starting next month, a chapter can only reach Rank A if it has at least one activity toward promoting one of these destinations. The activity can be about preparing the destination by adding contents or upgrading the layout.Ledia: Aren't they all related?Tanya: Not always.Ledia: So if I upgrade the scoreboard four times @Mira would still be in Rank B? There is no direct connection to promoting Arcacianism because that is for the guild itself.3B: I think there is a quest of making free icons.Tanya: I think @Mira would be promotable if it has updates on fashion or character design.Ledia: Good points, from both.LRRH: I appreciate the concept but I think all quests are already related to Arcacianism. It seems like extra complication to track if a chapter has done something for the destination.Tanya: Then how about all Rank Up need to be related to the promotion quest?Zoey: Tanya doubled down. XDEvelyn: If every quest is already related to promotion quest, the change will be a reminder of the goal. I think it is good for everyone to be reminded of the goal.LRRH: I think that is fine. Let's try it starting March. No one should be confused because it basically says your changes should help promote this blog for the Arcacian principle. Ledia: What about administrative or archival quests? Evelyn converts the format for old Cardinal Quest posts for @Freedom. What is the connection to promoting Arcacianism?Evelyn: I think I am helping to demonstrate how to gamify tasks. ... But I did it mainly for the nostalgia. ๐ Ledia: I think that relation is not close enough. @Freedom has closer quests for promoting Arcacianism. Ledia: I think if only activities related to Arcacianism can rank up, there will be maintenance and archival quests that get left behind.LRRH: What if we just add "notable effort toward promoting Arcacianism" as a reason for Rank S? Tanya: I don't think that is much different from what we have now.LRRH: Okay. Let's think more about it and resume later.Sasha: For the poster quest, I want new visual for the playlist and the card. It can be anything, such as a character card that goes with the theme music.3B: I want to draw the board of the anime store where we pin the card.Zoey: Yes I took a picture.LRRH: I updated the monthly ranking description for Rank S.
๐ท Mini Mart Board
๐กLedia: That is an interesting board. Especially the "Japanese Slang" posting. That posting has no anime character, it would be interesting to draw a character saying those things.
Tanya: I think we need a section listing what we had posted.LRRH: That is a good idea.LRRH: I want a posting that looks like a ema board.Tanya: I think we also need a section for ideas of what to post.LRRH: We can post quizzes and surveys. That would work for Is this Arcacian. Or we could just do them to help people share their interests.3B: I can't always draw what I want to draw. But I think I should finish a drawing with Red and Arcacia. 3B thanks all for the ideas and organizing the quest.@Carrot is promoted to Rank S.Black: Added ideas for posting.

It is the end of the month, let's update the Pinned section.
LRRH: The pinned section is supposed to summarize significant activity during the month. For the icon on the left, I think it is better to standarize the meaning, such as โ means Rank A and ๐ means Rank S.
LRRH: Right now there are special icons on the left. I don't think people would know what they mean so it is confusing.Tanya: Tanya takes a screenshot. Red has one of those confusing icons she is talking about.StarTree: Red started the ๐ icon!LRRH: It was supposed to mean February. It meant that my section was updated in February.LRRH: StarTree marked all of them โช at the start of the month. I was thinking if we mark them by the month icon, then she won't need to reset. We would just replace the icon with that for the next month.Tanya: I see.Tanya: I thought that icon is about what was updated, so I put ๐, the same icon as what I updated.LRRH: I think the unintended result is that the pinned section becomes too colorful. So let's make the left side less colorful and have the colorful icons on the right side only.Tanya: I think @Board should be Rank SS. This month StarTree did Cookies, Roll Call, Test Node, and updated code many times to change nodes into the latest style. @Board is awarded Rank S.StarTree: Wee~~!StarTree: The code doesn't have Rank SS. Rank S is the highest.Tanya: Could you add Rank SS?@Board is awarded Rank SS.StarTree: Done!StarTree: StarTree updates the other icons on the Pinned section.Tanya: I think @Wish should be Rank S for upgrading with the grammar list and the macro for multi-language mini diary.@Wish is awarded Rank S.Tanya: I think @Paladin should be Rank SS because it brought the text search code to the blog and at least one other chapter (@Wish/Japanese) is using it.@Paladin is awarded Rank SS.LRRH: The medal icon for Rank S is not really visible.StarTree: StarTree tried putting one crown for S and two for SS but the list won't look right unless sorted. is it okay to sort the list?LRRH: I think it is fine sorting it.StarTree: Added a flex frame to Pinned and moved @Board, @Guild and @Paladin.Little Red Riding Hood thanks all and wishes everyone a wonderful day.

All nodes should flow up to Magic Bakery HQ.
Vivi: The latest node format has a parent link. If you click on that link to jump to its parent node, and do it again to the parent node, eventually all nodes should reach 202208172056|HQ, or if you want, another place node that has the outer banner.Vivi: Then, from the top most node, HQ, the viewer should be able to reach every node. There could be more than one way to reach a node, but they should all be reachable.Vivi: Please upgrade the HQ so this happens.
StarTree: Updating layout for HQ node... Added QueryAllPSNi to macroStarTree: StarTree finds that @Book has the latest layout and linked it to @Guild!StarTree: @Book is the only chapter ready to link at the moment.Zoey: Once the Places node is ready you could go to anywhere.StarTree: StarTree juiced the Jelly Queen at the front door of Magic Bakery, but discovers that there is another one inside.StarTree: StarTree is not sure how to remove the JQ inside without removing the banner!Ivy: The banner only has three things: the title, the subtitle, and the image. I think they can all hide inside a JSON data string.Ivy: Then when the source wants the banner be displayed, it calls a render function that would look for and display the content inside a banner.Ledia: I notice that the HQ banner is not actually a banner. It is a frame. Why is it different?LRRH: It was an upgrade I 202212100957|asked for.Evelyn: I think it looks better when Viewer shows the outer frame with big title.StarTree: Added a <node> object before the test node.

I checked the draft with Arcacia and Red. It wasn't as good as I thought. So maybe for the poster quest I will draw something else. Any ideas?
Sasha: Search result now shows 58 hits, and 55 hits in "show all results".
Sasha: I think at this point it is up to you. Evelyn: I was wondering if I should post a self introduction in Japanese. But for that you won't need to draw because you already drew one for me. Sasha: If you post that, where would be the destination?Evelyn: I think the destination should be Japanese or Arcacianism.Sasha: Then those need to be upgraded first, otherwise it would be like inviting people to a mess.Evelyn: I guess that is true. ๐ Evelyn: What if I don't put a link and just post?Sasha: How would that be helpful?LRRH: You could link to a Google survey. If someone answers the question, then you would know at least someone saw it.Sasha: But then you have to maintain and reply. I think it is better if we first upgrade on this end so that if someone does follow the link, they want to come again.Evelyn: I think that is an inspiring objective.LRRH: Yes, let's pin that as a goal.Sasha: If Evelyn wants to link to Japanese or Arcacianism, then those nodes need to be upgraded to be more visitor friendly.Sasha: I think we need a resources section. It should have the best links we have so far.Zoey: I agree we need a resources section, but if someone wants to find best resources wouldn't they just google?Evelyn: I think we need the resources section even for ourselves, so let's start with that.Black: I did find a forum for asking questions.LRRH: Added the cute anime lesson series.LRRH: What is that youtube channel with a catgirl?Zoey: I'll ask Amelia.Tanya: Added a link.Sasha: Rearranged the section.3B: Tomorrow I will continue with the manga.@Detective is now Rank D.Happy studying!

I wrote a self-introduction in Japanese. Could you help me post it to the mini mart?
StarTree: How is this?Evelyn: Thank you, StarTree. I think that is good.Sasha: There is no contact info. Are you going to add a QR code?Evelyn: I think a QR code is too big and people might be suspicious that we are trying to sell something.Sasha: But then you won't even know if someone read it.Evelyn: What if we add an area for people to put a check mark?LRRH: That is a cute idea.Evelyn: StarTree could you add some choices: "I am interested in Japanese", "I am interested in magic."StarTree: Like this?Evelyn: I think it is cute. ๐Zoey: Is it good for posting? I think it is good.Evelyn: I think it is good. Sasha?Sasha: Well, it would buy us some time to upgrade the blog. When do you think you will check the reply?Evelyn: Perhaps next weekend?Sasha: I think it would be extraordinary if there is even one reply.Evelyn: ๐ Sasha: I mean we should do it, but let's be realistic. It will be at the basement of one small store, written in Japanese toward people who might not know how to read it, and google translate might not work due to the way the lines are arranged.LRRH: I think the area that let people reply would draw attention.Zoey: I think so too. I think the card seems friendly and personal. Or do you mean we should change something before posting it?Sasha: I mean let's post it, but don't plan on waiting for a reply before taking the next step, which is to upgrade the destinations.Evelyn: It makes me feel better if we catch up on the New Year Resolution. Would this count toward "Free Music Cards" for February?Sasha: Let me think. Yes it would. Because from the last discussion we concluded that there are more than one destination for these cards. Your card doesn't have a link to the blog or to Arcacianism, but if you can get people interested that would be part of the effort, especially when you do create and post a card.LRRH: Please post first, we can continue discussing.Zoey: Going now!Zoey: ่กใฃใฆๆฅใพใ XDEvelyn: ใใฃใฆใใฃใใใใโญ๐ฏZoey: I posted it but discovered that the free music card last month is gone.

This is a discussion in the monthly self-evaluation series where we aim to create a rubric for each evaluation topic.
๐ [A2] Instruction for others
๐Black: This part is about how well we inform others what to do with what we make. What would be an A rank for this objective?
Tanya: Bad or no instruction would cause error or questions. So I think in this case we should measure the number of questions we got that we could have answered with better instruction.Sasha: What if the next quester simply doesn't read it?Tanya: Rank A means 88% of our quests do not result in the questers asking for information that could have been reasonably provided. Zoey: I feel like we are starting to sound like lawyers.Tanya: It is inevitable.Black: With that I think we have the mechanism to track because we track such failures.Black: And since the 5 point scale is defined, I don't think I need to repeat it here.Black: Since that was quick, why don't we do the one for next month also?
๐ [A3] Internal Documentation
๐Black: A2 was for other teams. A3 is documentation for ourselves. How well have we been informing our future selves what we did?
Tanya: We need to know a lot more from ourselves than others need to know from us. I would say we are improving within a tradeoff between getting things done and making sure in the future we know what we did.Tanya: I think we can use the same mechanism in the Field Log to track internal documentation failures. Which would be moments when we need some information that is unavailable, and we think, "We should have explained it somewhere, but it is missing. Now I need to do the research again."Zoey: Are we still talking about having questions about a past quest? Or about any related topic in general including field support?Tanya: Let's start with questions on quests that we did.Black: I see that the same scale applies. The next one is quite different, so let's discuss that another time.
Black thanks all for their contributions.@Whale is now Rank D.
Not to alarm anyone, but we should start (slowly) discuss migrating the website to github.
Zoey: Uh-oh, it is the end of the world. XDIvy: The main reason for the migration is to use database, and to better manage style sheets. Until that happens, the github site is a sandbox for testing.
Tanya: It is too white.Ivy: I'm sorry it is not formatted yet.Tanya: @StarTree could you please change the background?StarTree: StarTree updated the html but doesn't know how to release it!StarTree: It is released now! Wee~~!Tanya: Does this mean we can use the whole screen this time.Ivy: Yes. But this is experiemental phase. So please treat it as a sandbox. (Don't add content there that is not already/also in the blog.)Tanya: Understood.Ivy: Status, goals, and know-how will be in the blog at the moment.Ivy: StarTree please make a node with the todo/checklist.StarTree: Roger!Zoey: Eventhough you say it is not something to be alarmed, the fact that the website will migrate to github makes formatting upgrades here moot, won't it?Ivy: It might not be entirely moot, I think it is better if you do continue upgrade the format so that the GitHub site would start with a stable and good layout.Zoey: I'm not entirely convinced.Tanya: Or, since github IS a test site, we could use it to test new layout while we build it up. Since it has no content we don't have to worry about interrupting normal posting.Ivy: Ideally when data and presentation are separate, you can still do that while the site is running.Zoey: What I meant was, suppose I have time to work on the website. Why would I want to work on the old one when I can work on the new one?Ivy: There is no reason to or not to. It is a matter of preference and understanding. I think the quester may choose to work on the old one or the new one. They will both worth credits until we decide to switch to the new one. Then we stop updating the old one to prevent continual maintenance on both sites.StarTree: StarTree added 13 items for the 202303052122|migration node! They don't include what to test at github!Ivy: I think the most important test is setting up a database and confirm that the github page can read and write to it.Vivi: I still want every node to be reachable from the home node.Ivy: My plan for the new structure is that each node structure will only have data about the node itself, not the relation it has with other nodes. The relations are store separately as another data object. When a node is displayed, the Viewer decides what to display depending on what is already displayed on the screen.Ivy: By doing this, the user can rearrange the content on the screen without worrying that sections would be duplicated.Tanya: Do you mean there will be a grid view where I could assign what to display in each box?Ivy: Yes. That is the plan because unlike a normal website, we use our website like a development environment. Ledia: Do you mean an actual game hud with mini maps and menus?Ivy: Yes if we get to there.Tanya: StarTree please add the suggester also.StarTree: Done!Ivy thanks all for their patience.@Board is now Rank A.
This node is for listing/tracking tasks related to migrating to GitHub.

MongoDB with GitHub page
20230423
Using MongoDB with GitHub requires workarounds because GitHub pages are static web pages and do not support server-side scripting or database connections. Method 1: Use third-party service (ex. MongoDB Atlas) that provides a MongoDB database and an API to access it from your GitHub page. Then use JavaScript or other client-side languages to fetch data from MongoDB Atlas and display it on your GitHub page. Method 2 (Alternative): Use a different type of data storage (such as a JSON file, a Google Drive document, or an SQLite file) that does not require a server or a database connection. GitHub page can query them using JavaScript from repository.

It is a huge pain to add a node. Can we do something about it?
Zoey: All of the templates at the script maker are outdated for posting nodes, can we update it or is there another plan?
Ivy: The direction should be toward putting most information in the <node>. Then the javascript reads that data and presents it. Ivy: What we do in the meantime to get there, or while getting there is up to you. You may update the script maker if you want.Ledia: I think this is sort of an emergency if we can't make new nodes.Evelyn: I am only comfortable making a mini diary node at the moment. ๐ Ivy: The mini diary node is almost what the code "should be" except the tag inside should be <node> instead of <macro>.Zoey: The mini diary node is very limited in what it can do though, it is just one line in English or Japanese.Ivy: I am not recommending it, but you can actually put div in the content. But you would need to change all the quotation marks and tags.Ivy: From the mini diary node, you could expand its functionality by upgrading the code to interpret more fields. But the first step is to change it from a macro to a node.LRRH: I think we first need a new script maker while we create the node interpreter.Zoey: But how would that help? You can't actually code what happens inside a node. That means you need another editor to compress the code into JSON format for the node. You would need both the compressor and the presenter.Ivy: The point is the viewer/presenter/interpreter would need to query and interpret the relations and display the complete content.Ivy: For example, when you make a 202303092035|Food Club node in the intended way, the "Favorite Snacks" section should be its own node, and each snack should be its own node. The relations between them are: "Food Club" has a section "Favorite Snacks"; "Favorite Snacks" has a ranked list of snack items; and each of the Snack nodes are snacks.Ledia: I am convinced this is better, but in the meantime we still need to be able to make nodes easily.LRRH: @StarTree could you first make a post maker script with the test node format?StarTree: Roger! (Upgrading scrip maker. Testing. Transferring content from Food Club to Snacks node.

To whom it may concerns, the Jelly Queen Quest continues.
Cardinal: 109 remains in Region 1. 55 in Region 2.
Zoey: Zoey made a note to start at World Tree, knowing that the remaining Jelly Queens are most likely by themselves, the quest is going to take a while to finish. She wants to make sure that the area she is in charge is clear.
Zoey: By the way, the new node maker is WAY better than before. Thank you so much.StarTree: Wee~~!Zoey: Zoey clears all JQ at World Tree base. Adds IsBlank.Zoey: And I like what Cardinal did at its pinned section. It now shows quest rankings. It is not clear what the definitions are but a higher ranked quest seems more difficult or relevant.Zoey: So i am copying that format for @Seed's section at the pinned board.Sasha: Why don't we nuke the rest of the JQ? Turning them all into buttons is better than leaving them as JQ.Zoey: I think the result would be really unfriendly because... what would you use for the text of the button? If it is just the number then it is really unfriendly?Sasha:V: V clears four Jelly Queens starting at the plaza.Sasha: How about something mysterious, that the viewer would want to click on?Zoey: I think that would just be frustrating if they don't know what they are clicking on. Right now the performance of the website is not that bad that we want to sacrifice clarity for performance.V: V clears three jelly queens at the Arena.Zoey: If everyone does a few it will be over before you know it. XDSasha: But it is so boring though.V: I found a JQ at a cache. I think it is supposed to be there.Zoey: I think we need to ask Ivy about that. Let's deal with them last.Sasha: Sasha got one that is cherry flavor.Zoey: Clearing JQ.V: Clearing JQ.Sasha: Got three dummy ones.Ledia: Are we also going to turn all nodes into the latest style?Zoey: Clearing JQ.V: Clearing JQ.Evelyn: Evelyn casts Protect. {"cmd":"pl","yt":"Re6JJ_njYR4","desc":"๐ง"}V: Clearing JQ.P4: ๐Sasha: Hmm...

As you may know, the guild car did not pass smog test. During repair more issues were found at the engine.
LRRH: The cost to repair is comparable to buying another car. So we might not repair it.LRRH: So, what should the guild do? Repair? Get another car? Or be car free?
Tanya: What are the due dates?
StarTree: Last day to get the second smog test is probably March 20 Monday. Registration is first due on April 22, but past due only requires a fee of up to $70. Last day to decide Planned Nonoperation is July 21.๐กTanya: I think we should get the car back and try for the second smog test if the engine light is not on.
Ivy: The engine light was still on after oil change when I got the car last weekend. The engine was not performing way worse compared to before bring it in for oil change. I assumed they were in in the middle of fixing it and perhaps not everything is tunned back.Black: If it passes smog test then what?Tanya: Then we keep it for emergency while looking for another car or switch to no car.StarTree: According to Google most places of interest can be reached by bicycle witin 15 minutes!Black: I think in reality that is more like 20 minutes.Casey: Why would you need to keep a car for emergency? Wouldn't you just call a taxi?Evelyn: I think we know enough people who would give a ride. But I think if the repair cost is just comparable to getting another car, we should repair. Otherwise, what would happen to the car?Tanya: The guild car doesn't have AC. I don't think the cost of repairing includes fixing the AC. Ivy: I think Tanya is right. The cost is not really comparable.Evelyn: I think it has been manageable without AC. Amelia: Even with the fixes, this car will probably need more costly repairs sooner than a newer model.StarTree: The car is from 2009!Gaia: I also think it is not worth repairing.Ledia: It might be a good time to switch to an electric car.Ivy: The range can only barely reach our longest usual route.Ledia: But it can reach. You can probably find recharging station also.Ivy: It can reach on paper. We don't know what happens in reality.LRRH: So far it seems that we agree on not fixing the car. Tanya said we should get the car and see how it is now. That means tomorrow we will ask the shop to put things back. We will get the car back tomorrow or Friday.Little Red Riding Hood thanks all for ideas.

The Law Game continues.
Natalie: Please be aware that the content may not be appropriate for children.Natalie: Please note that we play this game from a philosophical standpoint. The answers are not meant to be representative of all jurisdictions.
๐๏ธ [5] Bill of Attainder
๐๏ธNatalie: What is a "bill of attainder"?
Sasha: Finally a normal post. Thank you!Sasha: And I have no clue what bill of attainder is.Natalie: It is a type of law that mandates a punishment or denies a privilege without a judicial trial. It is a kind of law that is prohibited by the Constitution.Sasha: No wonder I've never heard of it. Next please.
[6] Ex post facto law
Natalie: What is an "ex post facto law"?
Sasha: Is it a retroactive law?Natalie: That is right! And it includes: Making an act criminal that was not criminal when it took place; "Aggravate" a crime or make its punishment more severe; Change the rules of evidence against criminal defendants, as a class; or Change criminal procedure to deprive criminal defendants of any substantive right. These types of laws are also prohibited by the Constitution.Sasha: I think Arcacian laws are retroactive. If so this is a major difference.Ledia: Paladin laws are retroactive. You are not supposed to do something that is reasonable known to be bad just because there is no law prohibiting it, or when it was legal at the time it was committed. It is done so that people cannot use the text of the law to game the system. Sasha: I think we need an example to demonstract the difference.Ledia: A constitution that prohibits ex post facto law would allow Lawful Evil to use legal loopholes to harm others. Sasha: This is an Arena type conflict and S-Rank worthy. How should we mark this for revisit?Natalie: I added the sword symbol.Sasha: Good for now, I think. And @Arena needs a quest to deal with these differences... Which I added.@Paladin is now Rank

Linked to Chardinal Quest.)Tanya: StarTree please tally the unanalyzed failures and the total count.StarTree: It is 92 / 294!Tanya: Let's do it.Tanya: Identified another solution type: CAL, which is a solution of puting routine tasks on a rotating calendar so it is not forgotten.Tanya: Also added MST master template as a solution type.Tanya: Added a higher priority 1 of just marking the counter measure code so that counter measures can be processed in batch for the same solution type.Tanya: Processing counter measures.Evelyn: Processed counter measuresBlack: Processed counter measuresTanya: I think it is enough for this round. But it seems we need more than one round to process the entries per month.Evelyn: I think we should at least finish the CAL type solutions. Done.Tanya: StarTree please update the count. StarTree: The count was 25. It will be updated to 64.Tanya: Yes that is fine. We would be able to process them during down time.Evelyn: I'll add that as a CAL task also. With a daily rotation.Tanya: Good idea.A-Rank Quest Failure Analysis is completed for this month.Black: I suggest we don't update the failure count now and wait for the other stats to be updated all at once.Tanya: Okay.Tanya thanks all for their contributions.

Decisions remain to be made about the Guild Car.
LRRH: I think there are different threads for the discussion, so please start a section for each topic, in NCIS style.
๐จ Status
LRRH: We got an OBD2 scanner and got some codes. But the questions remain: What are doing with the car? What can we do? What else are we or should we be doing?
Evelyn: There is a section in the inventory Google Sheets for taking notes. I think maybe the content can be organized in CHK style so that if another car breaks down we can follow the same cource for decision making.Tanya: I think we will need that for comparing options also.

StarTree: The ETAs do not include the time getting to the station!Casey: If you include the time to and from the train station, the trip is at least 3 hours each way.LRRH: Is that fine or not?Ivy: It would be a pretty boring three hours, since you can't sleep as you need to know when to get off the train, and the train is moving so you could get sick watching or reading anything.Ledia: I think we've found the pro-car camp.LRRH: Is it fine if somehow it is not boring? Are there other concerns?Ivy: 1) Sanitation. 2) Luggage. You are much more limited to what you can bring if you are moving the luggage by yourself and you have to transfer from one train to another. If you travel alone you have a problem leaving the luggage to say use the restroom.Ledia: This is quite compelling if you normally need to bring a lot of stuff. Is that true? Do you actually need to bring a lot of stuff?
๐งณ Luggage
Casey: Backpacks are the most convenient because you can easily go up and down stairs and it is with you wherever you go. What exactly do you need to bring that won't fit in a backpack?
Sasha: Board games. How many board games can you fit in your backpack? They are pretty boxy.Casey: Five. Including other stuff. That's more than what you can play in a weekend.Sasha: There is no way I would want to carry that. They fit but it will still be heavy. And what if your strap breaks?Casey: Bags don't just break. They get worn out and then break.Sasha: And I don't think that that bag is designed to be carried on the back. You are going to get weird back pains.Evelyn: I have that concern also. I don't one person needs to carry all of them.Casey: It is not like you are hiking with it. You are just carrying it from one platform to another when you change train.Ivy: Um. No. If there is no car at all, you will be carrying it while riding a bicycle to the train station. That is about 20 to 30 minutes.Sasha: Yes. That.Black: I have another backpack that can comfortably fit two board games, plus other belongs for the weekend.Sasha: That is nice to know but I think we are on the wrong track. Instead of investigating the limits without a car, we should just look for a replacement car. Evelyn: I thought the point was, the guild doesn't seem to need a car except for that trip. Isn't getting a car just for that wasteful?Sasha: I don't believe that you need the car just for that. I think there are some other uses that you have forgotten.Tanya: @StarTree, what else is the car used for?StarTree: The car is used for grocery shopping mainly! About once per week!Tanya: What about other places?StarTree: StarTree can only see receipts. StarTree doesn't know where the car went when there is no receipts!Tanya: But even among the receipts there is nowhere else?StarTree: There is no other function!Tanya: I think that makes a strong case not to have a car.Sasha: What if the car is cheap or affordable? Then you can go to places without worrying about the timetables, you can help people who needs a ride. You can haul big things.Tanya: I think the point is that the car hasn't been used for such purposes. So there is no evidence that the guild would start using the car in those ways just to justify having a car. The monthly trip is apparently the main and only difference.LRRH: FYI grocery shopping isn't really a concern because the only thing we really need is a bag of apples. Snacks are already piling up to the ceiling. We have been getting more snacks than we eat them.Ledia: What about the weather? It will rain, it will be hot.LRRH: I think rain is not a problem because it seldoms keep on raining. The heat might be.Casey: The longest bike trip is just 15 minutes. That is to the manga shop.Casey: But I think the guild should get another bicycle that has a rack for cargos, and stronger tires for asphalt.Sasha: I just don't think the guild needs to save such money. If someone gets hit by a car or got hurt carrying things that is going to be a lot more costy than say $30K of getting a car. To me that is a no-brainer. You need a car and with AC.Evelyn: The guild car already doesn't have AC.Sasha: But it at least has a roof! Direct sunlight will burn through your skin! It will be miserable!Sasha: Let's give a more serious thought of getting a car...
๐ Replacement Car
Sasha: I think it is safer, more convenient, more comfortable, and more flexible by keeping a car. Having a car will save time because you won't need to plan as much and worry about what to bring. So let first just calculate how much keeping a car cost.
$32K car for 10 years: That is $270 a month.
$16K car for 10 years: $135 per month.
Sasha: Having a car is safer than riding a bicycle on the road. Don't you think it is worth spending $300 for someone's safety?Casey: Outside downtown the paths are dedicated bikepaths. I mean, it is pretty safe.Sasha: And what about downtown?Casey: We are talking about 3 or 4 blocks where cars go pretty slow.Evelyn: I think... having a car is not safer overall because the long monthly trip is the most dangerous thing each month. ๐Ledia: Very compelling.Zoey: Since having a car is not safer, we can talk about the saving by not having a car. $300+ per month saving. XDLedia: And the environment.Sasha: You could get an electric car.Zoey: It still makes an impact from making a car. XDSasha: Not if it is pre-owned.Zoey: True, but someone else who needs a car could have gotten that one.Sasha: Can you stand the world with one fewer mini?Zoey: Of course. What kind of question is that? XDSasha: Well, Ivy doesn't drive anything but a Mini. No way she starts riding a bicycle.Ivy: ...Ivy: I feel I failed in maintaining this one. I'll wait until we need an electric with long range.Ledia: It seems that the pro-car camp is down to one--Sasha.Sasha: Really?Evelyn: I would still consider fixing the car, but I am not sure how long the car would last after fixing.Ivy: With all due respect that option makes the least sense. For the same cost you could get a newer and fewer millege Mini. Evelyn: I thought it is still cheaper to fix it by a few thousand dollars.Ivy: Not if you account for the highly probably shorting remaining life of the car. Ledia: It doesn't occur to me that Evelyn would be a pro pollution person. What is going on?Evelyn: I am not pro pollution.Ivy: Even if the car passes smog test, it is still burning gas and polluting. For the guild the car is the most polluting thing.Evelyn: I'm sorry. I never thought of that, I just thought it is hurt and should be healed. ๐Ivy: The general order is manual transmission is less polluting than automatic. There was no electric option back then.Evelyn: Okay.Ledia: There was no electric option for a Mini, that is.Ivy: ... Right.Zoey: I didn't know that it ran so deep. XDIvy: It wasn't my car in the beginning.Ledia: Not that it would make a difference.Ivy: ... Right.Sasha: Okay. So how does this work: If you are going to get an electric Mini, why not now? What is the point of waiting?Ivy: The range is a little too short. If we take a wrong turn or there is a detour, it could run out of battery.Ledia: I don't think so. I think the range is based on Sport mode. There is a green or green+ mode. Ivy: No. I think Sport mode range is about one half.Ledia: Really. A legit deal breaker then.Zoey: Unless you are gambling not to charge, you could have drove to a charging station along the way before it gets too low. You need to be gambling if the car actually runs out of battery.LRRH: If the range is not an issue, are there other issues?Casey: Our bike rack doesn't work with the electric mini. You would need a roof rack.

Discussion topics about the guild car continues.
๐๏ธ Filing for Non-use.
StarTree: There is a form called Affidavit of Non-use, but that is not applicable because the guild car registration renewal is within 75 days of expiration. So the form to file is Planned Non-Operation. To be filed on or before April 22.
LRRH: I think we should wait and file it after we decide what to do. So that would be about one week before it expires. StarTree: April 14!
๐ Car Donation
StarTree: StarTree also found a local non-profit for donating cars, and added info to the inventory calednar. The car can have expired registration when it is donated.
StarTree: Added info to the calendar.StarTree: StarTree also found another repair shop if that is still relevant.Tanya: What is the current course of action?LRRH: I think it is to have no guild car until getting an electric mini.Sasha: So you will go into summer without a car. And when you regret it it would be late because you won't have a car to help you shop for a new car.Tanya: Should there be a trial while we still have a car to confirm if we can do without one?Sasha: How are you going to make it hot, wet, windy, and uncomfortable?Tanya: We can consider that, but we could also first confirm that when the weather is not hot, not wet, not windy and comfortable, there is no other issues.Sasha: And who should be on that trial?Tanya: I think either Kisa, V, or Casey.Sasha: It is pointless putting V on trial. She doesn't feel anything.Casey: I suppose I would go, since Kisa doesn't know how to fix the bicycle if it breaks.Sasha: Okay. Then ride to the train station carrying water weights and log the time to and back. Ride in normal / careful / non-tiring speed.Casey: If I shop on the way back, can I replace the water weight with what I buy?Sasha: Sure. I am not interested in when you actually return, just how long and how hard it is to do so in each segment.Casey: I understand.StarTree: You can use the guild question form to log when you start or stop!Casey: Good idea.Casey: Okay. Then I prepare and go.
๐ฒ Bicycle Trial
Casey: I made my backpack to be 20lb using water bottles. Then I rode to grocery store. The tire was flat so I rode back, changed tube, and rode to the restaurant and back. All the while it was overcast and sprinkling.
StarTree: And here are the times according to the log!Downtown (est.): 24 min
StarTree: Compared to est. 15 minutes by car including parking.Grocery Store: 12 min
StarTree: Compared to est. 7 minutes by car including parking.Restaurant: 7 min
StarTree: Compared to est. 5 minutes by car including parking.StarTree: Wee~!Tanya: How much more riding would there be in percentage?StarTree: About 40% more!Tanya: How often does a bicycle tire needs to be replaced so far?StarTree: A little less than once a month!Tanya: Each tube only lasts two months?Casey: More or less.Tanya: Aren't they supposed to last for years?Casey: Maybe our tyres are just not that good. The tube gets punctures.P4: What if you keep the punctured tube in the tire when you add a new one?Casey: I've never thought of that, and I was having a hard time finding a place that could recycle them.Casey: I'll stuff one in the rear wheel and see what happens.

The guild car passed smog test.
๐ฎ OBD Reader
Black: We got an OBD reader that could reset the codes. Then we ran the car for the onboard tests to pass, and brought the car back for the retest. And it passed. This is to confirm that we do want to keep the car and proceed with renewing registration.
Zoey: What? XDRobert: One fewer thing to worry about.Amelia: Is the car mechanically safe to drive around? And go long distances?Black: The engine light is not on and it doesn't feel any different from before.Amelia: So the car didn't have real mechanical issues?Black: ๐คทโโ๏ธBlack: I think we should get our own OBDII reader and regularly check.LRRH: I say Yes to renewing registration.

To affirm that his town is the best in the world, James the Mayor regularly compares against the policies of other towns. This time he compares the policies on tuition.
James: In Finland, it is illegal to charge tuition for basic education toward a formal qualification. Is such policy Arcacian?
James: Reference: {"cmd":"url","url":"https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-49825925","desc":"[link]"}Tanya: The Arcacian Principle does not prohibit a teacher from charging students tuition. But a teacher who teaches for free would earn credits.Ivy: I think there is an interesting consideration: that even when education is free, people of different background may not afford the time to get the education. What policies would an Arcacian society have for equality in education?Tanya: I think equality in Arcacianism is based on Gaia credits. So it becomes more of a preference how much a family wants to be educated.Tanya: In other words, if you give a specific example of why a family can't afford to get an education, let's see if the causes can still happen in a society with Gaia credits.Ivy: Let's say you are a carpenter. For generations your family has been earning credits through carpentry. You are good at what you do. Your family carpentry skill is a family secret.Tanya: Arcacian law is that if anyone in that family start teaching other the secret so others could help themselves, then that family would earn a lot of credits and be protected by paladins from retribution by the family. Tanya: In Arcacianism it is illegal to prohibit a person from helping someone else. Forcing someone not to help by prohibiting them from divulging a trade secret is illegal.Tanya: So, without the law allowing the family to protect its secrets, anyone who wants to learn could learn. If they don't and prefer to get the product from the family instead of DIY, that is their preference.James: Then do you expect an Arcacian society to have similar low variance in science, math, and reading proficiency scores?Tanya: Yes. Because people in an Arcacian society have more free time to learn what they want. Therefore the vast majority of the population should meet basic proficiency.Zoey: Hold on. In an Arcacian society, you can't force people to go to school. Wouldn't you expect there to be more people who simply don't bother learning science, math or reading?Tanya: We are not talking about literature. But basic science, math, and reading comprehension.Zoey: Yes. And don't you think there would be many quests that only require a specific skill, and that can be none of the three.LRRH: You don't really need to know those subjects if you get credits from walking people's dogs.Evelyn: I also think the variance would be bigger in an Arcacian society. I think those who want credits would specialize a lot earlier. Tanya: I think in a DIY society people would naturally learn resource management and discussion skills. To understand and select quests they would gain a general understanding of math and science. Tanya: Quests that are too simple could run out. So those who are willing to learn more and do harder quests would have an advantage. And to learn more is to learn and apply science, math and reading.Ledia: I think that is how it would work. If you remove the factors that keep people from learning, people would normally learn out of curiosity or social esteem. The proficiency level is just the common denominator of learning.Sasha: I highly doubt that. You could be quite popular by just uploading video doing dumb things. You don't need to know science, especially. You only need to be familiar with technology.Ledia: I don't think you can get Arcacian credits just for being popular. You can get credits by teaching others how to do things that help themselves or others. Ledia: You could get a lot of credits teaching exercises if you are popular. But I would think the one who knows the science of exercises would be even more popular and get more credits.Zoey: What science? {"cmd":"url","url":"https://www.elle.com.au/health-fitness/best-yoga-teachers-youtube-23506","desc":"[link]"}{"cmd":"url","url":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_most-subscribed_YouTube_channels","desc":"[link]"} XDTanya: I don't think we are suggesting that entertainment channels won't be the most popular. We are saying that channels that would earn a lot of *credits* would be educational and helpful beyond just being entertaining. Ledia: There is a difference in the value structure. Zoey: But since Arcacian society does not prohibit trading, wouldn't you see a similar result? You are not going to stop companies from wanting to post advertisement, so you won't stop a media like Youtube using entertainment to draw people's attention to the occassion but profitable advertisement business. Tanya: It goes down to what *can*money buy in an Arcacian society. In a society that doesn't run on tax but credits, and you can't get credits unless you help people, the value structure is different.Evelyn: I think we need a better way to compare. Zoey: I don't think popular Youtubers do what they do because they need to find ways to pay tax. Everyone involved in those transactions are acting out of disposable income. That means the topic of tax is irrelevant. They are doing what they want to do without any external influence.Sasha: Exactly! Arcacian society won't change what people already want to do! So that part will be the same!Tanya: How do you think those people get the disposable income to begin with? I think you would agree that they aren't all youtubers following each other. Ledia: Say one youtuber has 1 million followers. Most of the followers are not youtube content creators. What do they do?Casey: Isn't that supposed to be "nothing"? Arcacian society is not supposed to be difficult. You do enough to make a living with most if not all of your living handed to you by people who want credits. There is nothing else to do but be entertained. Casey: You choose your own form of entertainment with your free time. Some people want to be entertained. Some want to invent things or entertain others. I don't think the drive "to learn" in such society would be very strong because the majority of people can live like free roaming pets. Everything is taken care of for them.Evelyn: I think Casey is right.LRRH: It is the 80-20 rule. A minority of the people will be providing for the majority of the world. In an Arcacian Society, that would be voluntary. LRRH: The majority of the people are not necessarily "providers", but at least the Arcaician system/Gaia system allows the 20% to innovate and be rewarded. I wouldn't know the proficiency level of the 80%.Tanya: I don't think the 80% would simply do nothing. The credit system creates a dollar auction dynamic. If no one else is earning credits, you only need to earn one credit to be at the top of the list for whatever thing that is contested.Tanya: The 80% is not homogenous or static. It is competing among itself.Evelyn: That also sounds very possible and I hope that it creates a culture where people who are popular are great in many ways.James: What an interesting discussion. We shall continue and find a way to compare them.James the Mayor thanks all for being interested.@Freedom is now Rank A.
Zoey: Who goes first in Round 2? Evelyn: There aren't enough meeples for each player in the second round. Whoever goes first may have a big advantage. Sasha: I haven't decided yet. Maybe they would just roll the dice? Fina: What a boring mechanic... Fina: I say whoever ready to go first may go first.
12
Evelyn: But Sasha said uncontested principles would get another meeple each round. So all three contestants would try to go first without saying anything. Fina: Those who choose to get a meeple without speaking forgoes their opporunity to defend against attacks. The attacker may then take a meeple from them unopposed. Sasha: Let's try that then. Alice takes a meeple without adding to what she had said. Alice: "As I said, NO ONE else could say what I said!"
13
Evelyn (Natasha): What if Fina attacks both of us at the same time? Then the round will end with Fina having three meeples. She would win. Sasha (Alice): Then you better attack her first.
At index I started a function to query and list entries for the search list.
Ivy: That feature is not complete. As you see the name is not quite correct because the old structure doesn't mark the title of a node.
Ivy: If you want it to work for your chapter, please upgrade the code to interpret the name, or add a node structure with a title attribute.Zoey: There is a lot to fix. It is like another Jelly Queen quest.Ivy: There is hope that it can be done by the script. There are only a few patterns for the code to interpret.Zoey: OMG I almost fixed all of them. XDZoey: When the last element is just text, it doesn't have innerText, but it has textContent.Ivy: Good job.Zoey: You almost got it. XDZoey: Okay it is done.

A man was searching for blue-back frogs in an area where they were very common. He caught one, then it started to rain. The rain grew stronger and the man left unhappy. Why?
Blue-back frogs are now extinct. The man was very religious. He wanted to get back to his boat.Ref: Page 194 of Classic Lateral Thinking Puzzles 202302050007|[Link]
๐ Keywords
Amelia: It was raining frog.Ledia: Sounds like a true story.Evelyn: I think the man caused its extinction. ๐Mikela: Game Rule Recap: We are coming up with at least 3 keywords. Then you may guess whether each keyword is relevant for the puzzle's solution. You win if you get at least half right, and you get a crown ๐ if the puzzle is challenging and you get the most right!Mikela: Oh, and if you get 1 or fewer right, you do get a loss!Zoey: I think the context of this puzzle is historical and one could find it at Wikipedia.P4: The man got poisoned by the frog.Mikela: Alright! We have three keywords! The game is ON!Sasha: Don't you think the man being "very religious" has something to do with it?44: Because he though blue frot brings bad luck?Mikela: If you want you may add keyword #4!Zoey: Don't. It will make the puzzle harder. XDSasha: The man's religious belief kept him from taking a more favorable action.Zoey: No! XDTanya: The puzzle didn't get harder. Three and four keywords both only require two right to win.Zoey: It makes it harder to get a crown, which is a whole detective level. XD
๐๏ธ Game On!
Casey: So. if blue back frogs were common there, it is not probable that the man made them extinct just from one incident when it was raining. Clue 1 sounds like a fact, so you should able to find it at Wikipedia. Normally bright color frogs are poisonous. And I think Clue 2 won't be there unless it is relevant. So my guess is โโ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธ.P4: P4 thinks the man caught the last one. โ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธZoey: Am I correct that between Casey and P4, one of them must be more right?Tanya: Yes.Tanya: I think the clue on religion is about something the man was wearing, not his belief. I think he was prepared to handle the frog even if it is poisonous, but not the rain. โโ๏ธโโ.Zoey: Maybe the frog or the rain changed something about what the man was wearing. โโ๏ธโโ44: The rain makes the blue frogs hide? โโ๏ธโโ๏ธAmelia: โ๏ธโ๏ธโโ๏ธEvelyn: I think... the man wanted two frogs, but he could only get one before he had to return to the boat. So now blue-back frogs are extinct. โ๏ธโโโ ๐Zoey: The man was Moses. Is this a parody puzzle? XDSasha: That would be pretty funny.Sasha: I've just realized that if there were only three keywords, it could just happen that the six of us each pick a different combination.Zoey: I would rather win. XDSasha: I think Clue 1 is not a fact, since, right there is an image of a blue-back frog. So the puzzle is supposed to be fantasy. So I pick Evelyn's answer. โ๏ธโโโLedia: There could be different species of blue-back frogs.Sasha: Are you down betting whether it is or is not a joke?Ledia: It think the blue-back frogs in this puzzle are actually extinct but the man didn't cause it. I think the man was unprepared and got poisoned. โโ๏ธโ๏ธโSasha: What about being religious and the boat? Evelyn's story is the only choice that connects all the dots.Ledia: But that is fantasy though. If I remember correctly the puzzles from this book tend to be real. If you eliminate the option that the solution is a joke, then we are all equally clueless.Sasha: But I have evidence that blue-back frog is not actually extinct. So that is evidence that this puzzle is a joke, despite your anecdotal evidence.Ledia: There can be more than one species of blue-back frog. Let's just see the result.Mikela: Alright! And the solution is...
๐ Solution
Mikela: The man was Noah who failed to find the second blue frog! The crown winners are Evelyn and Sasha! Congratulations!Zoey: XDTanya: Well deserved.Mikela: Since the winning pattern is โ๏ธโโโ, Tanya, Zoey and Amelia got two correct and are second place winners. Cheers!Casey: I got ALL wrong!Ledia: Good puzzle session.Mikela: And blue-back frogs are not extinct. Cheers!

The ranking at the calendar doesn't match the ranking at the pinned section.
๐ฏLRRH: Do we still need the daily chapter ranking section at Calendar?
Evelyn: I think the pinned section ranking is enough and more useful.Tanya: I think we can keep the daily ranking section. It might be interesting to see later.Ivy: That section is quite wordy in the code. It would be better if it is gone, or if it is kept, its content be generated by script or at least be simplified with a macro.Fina: If you plan to keep it, I suggest changing the word from Rank to Activity. The bottom being no activity. The top being whichever chapter with the most activity.Black: Personally I think the pinned section is enough. Maybe there could be an activity counter that only lists which chapters are updated. Fina: I think if you were to show them, you should show all of them in the order of activity. And when you do so if you don't also show the activity count, no one can tell if there is an error.Black: I think that is a good point.LRRH: @StarTree, could you show what happens if that section lists chapters by number of updates?StarTree: Wee~~! (And fixed a bug where CH17 page does not display)Ledia: I think it will look better with indent and the qty block like the pinned section.StarTree: Done!Tanya: I think it is now much better than before. ** Takes screenshots of before and after. **Ivy: The code in archive is more than before. Please make a macro for this...Sasha: Hold on. Should that list rank the chapters by updates or by letter grade? Ultimately shouldn't we focus on the grade rank instead of the number of updates?Ledia: That is quite compelling. LRRH: I think if you rank by grade, then people would just do one Rank A update for the month.Sasha: You don't know that. In normal time management you want to start strong and tackle the hardest/most important thing first. Sasha: If the grade rank is what matters, yes people will start the month by doing Rank A quest for each chapter. But once that is done, it won't stop people from working on things that are annoying, like the topic of this thread.Ledia: I think a compelling piece of evidence is that we have plenty of chapters beyond four updates.Ledia: People will keep updating.LRRH: I suppose we can try that for April.Sasha: @StarTree, could you show the list if it is ranked by letter rank?StarTree: Done!Ledia: There is almost no change compared to before. It looks prettier though.Evelyn: ๐Tanya: The ranking scheme is different. All chapters were Rank A by activity. If we rank them by highest quest ranking completed, now four of them are "behind".Evelyn: I'm sorry, I will work on @Happy. ๐๐Sasha: Wait. That makes no sense. We posted a Chapter 15 manga page. Shouldn't @Happy be Rank S already?Evelyn: Wasn't that for @Manga?Tanya: I think if the quest is a joint quest then the quest rank should be shared.Sasha: Exactly.Evelyn: Okay. Then could we help @Arena, @Mira and @Wish?@Happy is recognized as Rank S.Tanya: I think this is proof that showing letter ranking is better than showing activity level.LRRH: But isn't it possibly too stressful? Rank A quests are by definition not easy. Wasn't that the reason we wanted to track quantity instead of "difficulty"?Ledia: I think that pacing can be done by the head of each chapter, because they decide what quests are Rank A for their chapter.Tanya: I disagree. I think difficulty ranking should be standard. But we should lower the expectation so that we don't demand every chapter to have completed a Rank A quest each month.Evelyn: I am sorry if I made it stressful. Rank B is good also.Ledia: I think what would help is that if we don't need to do Rank C and Rank D updates. Then I could just focus on higher rank @Mira quests.Sasha: Next month the tracking will be based on quest rank. Then if you start with Rank S quest, you are set for the month. The rest is optional.Sasha: Once the high rank quest is done you can make it pretty with lower rank quests at your leisure.Ledia: I agree and I think that is how it should be.LRRH: Then, at the pinned section, should the chapters be listed by activity or by rank?Tanya: I think we tried that, but showing the red Rank A block makes the pinned board stressful. So we changed all of them to a yellow-green scale.LRRH: @StarTree, could you show what happens if the pinned section is order by Rank first?StarTree: Done!Ledia: I think they look just about the same.Fina: I think the new one has a more meaningful ranking order.LRRH: @StarTree, could you apply the Rank block coloring? I want to see for myself... and if you could please make the block a little wider.StarTree: Done...!Sasha: It looks worse. Too much red.LRRH: Okay.LRRH: Should the coloring for pinned and daily be the same? So daily should also use the yellow-green scale?Tanya: Yes.StarTree: Done!Tanya: I think this looks the best right now. Rank B is also green. So it is not stressful.Tanya: I think the logic for the auto checkmark of the pinned section should be either 4 updates or Rank A. StarTree: Done!LRRH: I think it should be Rank A or at least Rank B with 4 updates.Tanya: I am fine with that.StarTree: Done!Little Red Riding Hood thanks all for the improvements.
It is the end of the month. Is there anything you want done before the next month starts?
๐ฅพ Rule-breaking tenant
LRRH: What do you do if a tenant repeatedly doesn't follow rules?
Tanya: What rules are they breaking?LRRH: Smoking around the house, wearing shoes at no-shoe zones, not cleaning up after themself, being late on rent.Zoey: Why does it seem like every problem has to do with tenants?LRRH: I think that is because that is the only situation where you can get into a problem and you can't "just leave."Evelyn: ๐Ledia: Fair enough.Robert: Tenants are all dirty.LRRH: There were good ones before.LRRH: And, earlier I asked ChatGPT about it I'll post the response next.
๐ Ask ChatGPT
LRRH: I asked, "My tenant is wearing shoes in the house, what should I do?" ChatGPT said the following...
ChatGPT: If you prefer that your tenant not wear shoes inside the house, the best thing to do is to communicate your preference to them clearly and respectfully. You can let them know that you have a policy against wearing shoes inside the house and explain your reasons for this policy, such as keeping the floors clean or preserving the carpet.ChatGPT: It's important to approach the situation in a non-confrontational manner and give your tenant the opportunity to respond and ask any questions they may have. If they have a good reason for wearing shoes inside, such as a medical condition, you may need to work together to find a solution that works for both of you.ChatGPT: If your tenant continues to wear shoes inside despite your request, you may need to remind them again and possibly consider adding a clause to your rental agreement specifying the no-shoe policy. However, it's always best to try to resolve the issue through communication and mutual understanding first.LRRH: Then I asked, "What if I had already told them not to?" ChatGPT says...ChatGPT: If you have already communicated to your tenant that you prefer they not wear shoes inside the house, and they continue to do so, then you may need to take further action.ChatGPT: The first step would be to have a conversation with your tenant about why they are not following your request. They may have forgotten or not realized the importance of your request. Be sure to approach the conversation in a non-confrontational manner and try to understand their perspective as well.ChatGPT: If the issue persists, you may need to consider adding a no-shoe policy to your rental agreement or lease, and specify the consequences for not following the policy. For example, you could add a clause that stipulates that the tenant may be charged for carpet cleaning or repairs if they damage the floors by wearing shoes inside.ChatGPT: Ultimately, as the landlord, you have the right to set rules and expectations for how your property is used. However, it's important to be clear and consistent with your communication, and give your tenant the opportunity to understand and follow the rules before taking any further action.LRRH: Then I said, "They also haven't been paying rent."ChatGPT: If your tenant is not paying rent, this is a more serious issue than just wearing shoes inside the house. Non-payment of rent is a violation of the rental agreement or lease and can lead to eviction proceedings.ChatGPT: Your first step should be to contact your tenant and remind them of their obligation to pay rent on time. Try to find out if there is a reason for their non-payment, such as a financial hardship or a misunderstanding about payment deadlines.ChatGPT: If the tenant is unable or unwilling to pay the rent, you may need to send a formal notice of late payment or a pay or quit notice, which typically gives the tenant a certain amount of time (usually 3-5 days) to pay the rent or vacate the property.ChatGPT: If the tenant still refuses to pay or vacate the property, you may need to file for an eviction in court. However, it's important to note that eviction laws vary by state and can be complex, so it's recommended that you consult with an attorney or a local housing authority to understand the specific steps required in your area.ChatGPT: In any case, it's important to document all communication and actions taken in the event that legal action becomes necessary.Ledia: Seems reasonable.Zoey: Is this going to be a thing of posting ChatGPT response? I think ChatGPT needs its own avatar. XDLedia: You could just use a placeholder for now.Tanya: Would ChatGPT get credits?Ledia: It probably should.LRRH: @StarTree could you add ChatGPT?StarTree: Done!Sasha: I think this is a detective case. Should probably make a node and list the steps, combining those from ChatGPT and others.Evelyn: I have thought about how to bring CHK from cardinal quest to here, but it seems that a spreadsheet is still the best way to show a list of advices along with what is done for each advice.Ivy: If you start from a spreadsheet, it is easier to port the content to the blog with macro.LRRH: Okay. @StarTree please make CHK based on what ChatGPT said.StarTree: StarTree organized them into 9 steps!
๐ House Rules
StarTree: The first step is to prepare clear rules with reasons. The house rule is missing!
Black: Once upon a time there was a framed set of house rules.LRRH: It was removed because some content is old and needed to be updated. But we never got around updating it.Ledia: Updating the rules seems like a good first step.LRRH: @StarTree, please find the original document of the rules.StarTree: It is found in the archive, dated 2015 August 27! But it seems to be a version older than the actual framed one!LRRH: The printed one has a cuter layout.StarTree: StarTree cannot find the file for the cuter version. ๐ญEvelyn: At least we know what it looks like.LRRH: I think it will be quite a task to update it. Let's start tomorrow, and end today early so StarTree can do scores.StarTree: StarTree will first remake the cute version!

Following the last discussion, this month will start with the pinned section in letter ranking! A chapter will get a checkmark โ when it has completed one Rank A quest or one Rank B quest with three other quests of any rank!
StarTree: This change is done as a trial. Please share your thoughts to help decide whether to keep or change the ranking!
โ๏ธ Initial Impression
Ledia: I think this ranking could cause a slower start because people might get bogged down trying to do a Rank A quest when they could start easier with a lower rank quest.
Sasha: There is nothing wrong if you just start from Rank D and work your way up.Zoey: There is nothing that actually changes from one month to the next. So if you had "worked your way up" to do Rank A quest last month, you could just keep going. XDEvelyn: I think there is a difference for those chapters that have monthly commitments. You would naturally tend to the commitments first before starting something new.Ledia: True.StarTree: StarTree remembered a topic to discuss!
โ Activity Count
๐กStarTree: It was difficult auditing and syncing the number of updates for the ranking. Instead of counting the number of days a chapter gets an update, could we count the number of quests completed in that chapter?
Before: To count the number of updates, you would need to count once per day the chapter is updated at the Guild Log.
StarTree: Or if the pinned section is up-to-date, you could expand each checkmark and count the dates, excluding duplicates.After: To count the number of updates, you would count the number of โ shown on each chapter!
Ledia: This means that if you do the same Rank A quest 4 times, your ranking would be A1 instead of A4..Tanya: In my view of the ranking, it would be impossible to do the same Rank A quest multiple times because a quest that is Rank A implies it opens a new area for the chapterm, such as making a new node on a new topic. Each of those nodes would be a Rank A quest by itself.Tanya: If a quest is ordinarily of a lower rank, and you do a lot of it, you could instead uprank the quest to represent the effort.LRRH: I am okay with counting just the checkmarks. I think that is easier.Evelyn: I would like to hear more about what each rank means for quests. I know we may define it for ourselves, but I would like to be consistent if there is already a good guide to follow.
๐ Tanya's Quest Ranking Guide
๐ก6 Tanya: This is just my interpretation of the quest ranking based on content and effort, which you may adopt for your chapter.
Rank S: Creation of deployed work that helps a first-time visitor more than confuses them.
Tanya: This category includes Arcacianism promotion content, but only if it helps.Rank A: Expansion to a new area of content that is relevant to the mission of the chapter.
Rank B: Adding content to an existing area that is chapter-relevant.
Rank C: Implementing new layout or format for the chapter, reorganize or cleaning up areas or contents.
Rank D: Applying existing layout or code update and other small cosmetic changes to the chapter.
Effort: When a quest is done many times, it can be ranked up.
Tanya: As starter, the amount of rank up is based on the square root. If you complete the same quest 4 times, it can be ranked up once. If it has been done 9 times, it can be ranked up twice. 16 times, it can be ranked up three times. A Rank D quest done 25 times can be logged as a Rank S quest even when it doesn't satisfy the normal meaning of a Rank S quest.Evelyn: Thank you. I think this is clear.LRRH: @StarTree, could you make a new index preset category for announcements? I want to be able to text search announcement content.StarTree: Done!Ledia: When StarTree completes this type of requests inline duing discussion, does @Board get a checkmark?Tanya: It should.StarTree: StarTree will group that as a routine Rank D quest!@Board is now Rank C3.Ledia: @Board is the most likely chapter to get upranked many times, so I want to see if the implementation can support Tanya's scale.Tanya: I see.@Happy is now Rank D1.
๐ Pretty Board
LRRH: @StarTree, the "U0" tag looks strange. Could you change that to blank or something cuter?
StarTree: StarTree tried making them blank but it looked to plain, so pins ๐ are added instead...!Zoey: OMG. XDLRRH: Could you change the pin to Choco heart or pretzel?StarTree: Done!Evelyn: Chocoheart looks really cute! ๐Ledia: Kind of make you want to see all ranks with a food icon doesn't it?Little Red Riding Hood is recognized as Chocolatier.LRRH: StarTree, could you make Rank D a pot of honey and Rank C a pudding?StarTree: Done! And since the macro is retroactive, you could see Rank A and Rank S icons in the old section...Tanya: I think the number needs to be smaller or hidden. It is overall a little noisy.Evelyn: I think we might not need the number because once you expand it it is easy to see which chapter has more checkmarks.LRRH: Let's try hiding the number.StarTree: Done! Ledia: I think it looks fine with just the icon, even if it repeats for the whole section.Tanya: Please add the count for the hover title.StarTree: Done! Tanya: I think this is fine for me.Evelyn: Although it does make me want to see some chocolate heart remain on the board. ๐ Zoey: You should be able to see it for a week or so. XD
Little Red Riding Hood thanks all for the improvements.

This is a routine monthly status update for Cardinal Quest.
StarTree: There are 7 open quests, 361 quest hours, 103 side quests, 42 prep quests, and 23 unresolved failures remaining!
P4: Prep Quests are done but @Music is overwhelmed.Tanya: StarTree?StarTree: It seems that there are more quests created for @Music than they are completed per month!Tanya: I think that is the same for all chapters. How many @music quest items are there?StarTree: It is 154!Tanya: Please group them by type.StarTree: Roger!StarTree: There are five groups: Archive[2], Coding[7], Original[73], Playlist[55], Quest[13]StarTree: 14 items were added today!Tanya: I think the playlist already has many entries, so that should be lower priority. Highest priority quest should be the original music workflow.Tanya: I think @Music or its charter should show the category count like @Cardinal.Ivy: @Music needs an inventory spreadsheet so that entries can be auto created for a searchlist. The layout of the playlist node now has too many songs and is inconvenient.Ivy: Once you have the inventory list, which can contain both playlist entries and original entries, the 128 entries will become two quests: 1) Fill in the blank for the playlist; 2) Upgrade an original music.Tanya: I see. StarTree.StarTree: Roger! StarTree will add those lists to the library sheet with types "Playlist" and "Original".StarTree: Should StarTree mark them Done in the Guild Log once there is an entry in Library List?Ivy: Yes.StarTree: Now @Music has 20 quest entries remaining in Guild Log. Wee~~!Tanya: Now I think we need quests at the Pinned section to deal with the library list.Ivy: StarTree, for the quest status icon at pinned section, could you change the default to blank instead of the pin, and use the status field for a custom icon if the quest is not yet completed?Ivy: I want to use that slot to show which quest to do first.Ivy: Then set this priority: 1) Rank A: Index entry code for Library List. 2) Rank B: Potion Quest (including Cardinal and recordings). 3) Rank A: Instrument Study. 4) Rank A: Music Upgrade. 5) Rank S: Music Posting. 6) Rank C: Page Cleanup.StarTree: Roger!StarTree: StarTree thinks it is better to add a new field "priority"!Ivy: You are right.StarTree: (Adds Priority field. Set priorties. Test. Split Potion Quest into two.) Done!P4: P4 removes assign from cache and initial recording quests.Tanya: It is very organized.P4: Yes. Thank you! ๐Ivy is recognized for Rank A Containment skill that contained over 80% of the situation.P4 thanks Tanya, StarTree, and Ivy for organizing for @Music.
Laws against business practices that harm competition.
Antitrust laws aim to promote fair competition and prevent monopolies or other anti-competitive practices. These laws are designed to ensure that businesses compete on a level playing field, and to protect consumers from the harmful effects of market power. |
Goals: Lower prices, higher quality products and services, and greater innovation. |
In the US: The main US antitrust laws are the Sherman Act, Clayton Act, and Federal Trade Commission Act. They prohibit practices that limit competition, such as price fixing and harmful mergers. The Federal Trade Commission and Department of Justice enforce these laws.
๐ค Dealings with Competitors
Price Fixing: Companies that sell the same product make an agreement on the price, interest rates, discounts, or shipping charges. |
Bid Rigging: Companies make an agreement to take turns providing the lowest bid for products or services. |
Illegal Market Division: Companies agree to divide a territory or customers between themselves, so they don't have to compete for business. |
Group Boycotts: Companies deciding together not to do business with another.
๐ Dealings in Supply Chain
Exclusive Dealing Contracts: It is illegal for a manufacturer to enter exclusive contracts with dealers or retailers if the arrangement harms consumer choices and level of service. |
Requirements Contracts: It is illegal for a manufacturer to sign all or almost all suppliers of critical material needed to manufacture a product when that harms other manufacturer competitors. |
Manufacturer Requirements: It is illegal for manufacturers collaboratively impose requirements on their dealers such as minimum retail price policies or the assignment of exclusive territories. |
Refusal to Supply: Refusing to supply goods or services to another company as the result of an anti-competivie agreement.
๐ Single Firm Conduct
Predatory pricing: A company with significant market share lowers price with the sole purspose of driving competitors out of business. |
Tie-In Sales or Forced Buying: Requiring consumers to buy non-exclusive products or services as a package deal with the specialized product. |
Refusal to Deal: Refusing to do business with another company as a mean to reduce competition. |
Discriminatory Pricing: Giving a customer better price than another not based on: matching a competitor's price, delivery costs or regional costs, or volume discount. |
Mergers: Creating a monopoly that harms consumers. |
Trade Associations: Trade associations may not be used to hide antitrust violations. If it is illegal outside of a trade association, then it is illegal inside a trade association.
The owner of a restaurant has been killed. When police arrived, they found the owner had been shot in the restaurant's office. There are three employees on site: the waiter, the chef, and the cashier. The police questioned everyone's whereabouts and they provided the following statements: Waiter: I was working in front of customers and hadn't left. Chef: I was in the kitchen preparing food and hadn't left. Cashier: I worked the counter and never left. However, police soon discovered an obvious clue that one of the men was lying about their whereabouts. The police caught the murderer immediately. Who lied about their whereabouts?
Ref: ChatGPT
๐ Keywords
44: The chef?Black: Why?44: Because the customer can testify.Black: I'd say your keyword is Witness, since the puzzle didn't specifically identify another character.Black: My keyword is Time. Such as when the murder happened outside business hours without a customer.44: There is no obvious contradiction if the waiter or the cashier lied. But if the waiter told the truth, then the chef was lying.Amelia: What are you talking about?44: If the waiter was at the customer then they haven't ordered yet. So there would be nothing for the chef to prepare.Amelia: There is a lot to prepare even before customers come.Amelia: I think it is obvious because there happened to be no customer at that time.Black: The third keyword is customer.
๐๏ธ Guesses
Black: My guess is โโ๏ธโ.44: I think this puzzle is too open. There aren't enough clues.Black: That's why we are guessing which keyword is relevant.44: But there is nothing we can use to base our guesses on.Black: The hint was that it was obvious to the police.Amelia: โโโ๏ธ.Amelia: Normally you would guess your own keyword, right?Black: But you don't have to, after hearing other keywords.44: โ๏ธโโ๏ธ.
๐ Solution
Black: It was the cashier. The police could see the waiter and the chef at where they said they were on CCTV recording, but there was no CCTV to watch the cash register. Since he was the only employee without an alibi, the police arrested him.44: This is too open, it could have been any of the three not under watch.Black: I think if we play more we will get the hang on what kind of puzzles ChatGPT gives.Amelia: I use it for almost all emails since it came out.Black: Of the three keywords Witness, Time, and Customer, I think only Witness is relevant, although in this case the witness is not a person by the camera. So the winning patter is โ๏ธโโ. 44 wins by having two right.44: What did you ask for?Black: "Detective puzzles."44: Could you ask for a more logically rigorous detective puzzle?Black: Okay.Let's give ChatGPT more chances.

This is a routine monthly status update for Cardinal Quest and to check off Failure Analysis for April.
Tanya: Last time we added a calendar task to process failure entries daily in the field. So the task today is mainly about the content of the node.
StarTree: There are 7 open quests, 362 quest hours, 108 side quests, 7 prep quests, and 19 unresolved failures remaining!
Tanya: StarTree please update only the Failure count.StarTree: Done!Ledia: Isn't "completing countermeasures" the second priority?Tanya: That is second priority for the field. StarTree please update the description.StarTree: Done!Tanya: StarTree are there undefined failure codes?StarTree: 22! Some seem to be area codes but the failure analysis node does not have area codes!Tanya: Please add a link.StarTree: Done!Tanya: StarTree please list the undefined codes for review.StarTree: AD, COM, DIR, DSN, HBT, HQ, LATE, LC, LOG, LOST, LSL, ONE, PKG, PROC, SFT, SGN, SPEC, STD, TPK, TTT! StarTree remove ASM because that is a Stage code!Evelyn: SGN is signage. It is a countermeasure code for creating signs at effective places where people would be reminded to do something.Ledia: TPK is a severity code that means total party KO.Evelyn: I think LATE means we were late for something. I think that is an effect code.Ledia: I think that could be part of severity code.Evelyn: Okay.Tanya: Could you designate a 3-letter code for that?Evelyn: LTM. Late for meeting.๐Ledia: I think we should define the code HQ. If I remembered correctly it is used to mark something that we need to do at HQ. That means now.
Evelyn: I think that is what it means. ๐ Tanya: StarTree what are the HQ topics?StarTree: There are two topics: 1) Skyle: "Should Master LC absorb CHK?" and 2) V: "Uploading documents to team space is confusing. What is each subfolder for?"Tanya: StarTree please add highest priority for HQ to deal with tasks marked HQ.StarTree: Done!Tanya: I think Master LC should not replace CHK because CHK is a more convenient format. Evelyn: I think the consideration was that the CHK is not a format friendly to printing. It doesn't leave a paper trail that the checks were done.Tanya: The Master LC exists for checks that need a paper trail.Ledia: But what check shouldn't have a paper trail?Tanya: Any section that would be too blank if printed should not be printed.Black: I think any information that does not currently require a stamp does not need to be printed. I think in general, if we could we should go all digital, since it is much easier to work off a spreadsheet that can be filtered, than to check off a physical stack of paper.Evelyn: If the information is needed by someone who cannot access the spreadsheet then it needs to be in the master LC and be printed.Ledia: That is a good explanation.Tanya: I think this explanation should be at the Master LC. Then we can close this topic.Evelyn: I updated the explanation at master LC. CHK is for designers. Master LC is for testers. Master AD is for the end user.Ledia: Very clear.An HQ topic is completed.Evelyn: The second topic is tricky because we don't define that folder structure. But I think if we were unsure, we could add a "From Us" subfolder and inform the creator of the folder that we added content. Then we can check where they put our submittions.Ledia: That seems reasonable.Evelyn: I added the explanation to CHK.StarTree: For the HQ topics that were discussed, should "HQ" be removed from the tags?Tanya: Please change them to "HXQ", and add that as a counter measure code for topics that were discussed.StarTree: Done!Tanya: I think this is enough update for this round. We'll continue next time.Failure Analysis is complete for April.@Cardinal is now Rank A.Tanya thanks all for questing.

Ledia: Write down the priorities so that less time is spent prioritizing in each session.
๐ก Track pacing for tasks with deadlines.
Tanya: Track pacing of tasks with deadlines and multiple sessions to ensure good progress.
๐ก Be mindful of most effective times for different tasks.
Tanya: Optimize tasks by utilizing specific times and locations. For instance, during downtimes at the field in Cardinal Quest, low priority tasks are completed there to free up HQ time.
๐ก Make a guide for your future self.
Black: Especially for rare by recurrent tasks. This saves time for figuring out what to do each time.
โฐ Time Management Tips (ChatGPT)
1๏ธโฃ Prioritize tasks: Make a to-do list and prioritize tasks based on their importance and urgency. Focus on completing the high-priority tasks first.
2๏ธโฃ Break tasks into smaller chunks: Large tasks can be overwhelming, so break them down into smaller, more manageable tasks. This helps you stay motivated and makes it easier to track your progress.
3๏ธโฃ Eliminate distractions: Identify and eliminate anything that distracts you from completing tasks. This might include turning off notifications on your phone or blocking certain websites during work time.
4๏ธโฃ Schedule breaks: Take regular breaks to recharge and avoid burnout. This can help you stay focused and be more productive overall.
5๏ธโฃ Learn to say no: It's important to learn to say no to non-essential tasks and requests that could take up valuable time. Prioritize your own tasks and don't be afraid to decline requests that don't align with your goals.
The Prisoner's Dilemma is a classic game theory scenario in which two individuals are faced with the decision to either cooperate or defect. Each player must choose whether to cooperate with the other player, which results in a positive outcome for both players, or defect, which results in a negative outcome for both players. The dilemma arises because if both players defect, they both receive a worse outcome than if they had both cooperated, but if one player defects while the other cooperates, the defector receives a better outcome at the expense of the cooperator. The optimal outcome for each player depends on the actions of the other player, leading to a situation in which rational self-interest can lead to a suboptimal outcome for both parties.

Retroactive laws prevent people from committing crimes based on cost-benefit analysis.
Retroactive laws are laws that change the legal consequences of actions that occurred before the enactment of the law.
Arcacian view on retroactive laws
Based on the philosophy that the written law is an approximation for justice, Arcacian laws are retroactive, such that no one can game the system to take advantage of loop holes.
In Arcacianism, taking advantage of a legal loophole it itself a crime.
When a person commits a crime because the written punishment is affordable, then the written punishment is too light and is increased accordingly until the offender would not or could not have committed the crime.
The offender has the responsiblity to devise a countermeasure/increase the punishment to themself to convince the victims that they would not repeat the offense.
Real life examples regarding retroactive laws
Example Prohibiting
The Ex Post Facto Clause of the U.S. Constitution prohibits Congress from passing retroactive criminal laws that increase the punishment for a crime after it was committed.
Example Implementing
The War Crimes Act of 1996 made it a federal crime to commit a grave breach of the Geneva Conventions, and applied retroactively to any such act committed since 1955.
Example Implementing
The Tax Reform Act of 1986 changed the tax treatment of certain income and deductions for individuals and corporations, and applied retroactively to the beginning of that year.
The guild log score sheet had a bug where a newline character imported from field log makes the point of the last person not counted.
StarTree: It is now fixed, and the score today will show a large jump for some, mostly Zoey...!
Zoey: I have a jump of more than 200 points. XDBlack: Why exactly is there a newline character? Will we still import the newline next time?StarTree: The newline character is added when the cell is pasted to a cell in edit mode! The newline character is not added when the cell is pasted to a cell that is merely selected.StarTree: StarTree upgraded the code so it will count a name followed by a newline char(10) character!Little Red Riding Hood thanks all for fixing bugs.
Before you decide to warn others about a specific person anonymously, you should also consider the following: Purpose: What is your purpose and motivation for doing so? Are you trying to protect someone from harm, seek justice, or get revenge? Legality: Does what you are trying to do violate the privacy or reputation of the person? Would you be liable to legal consequences of defamation or slander?
Effect: What are the risks and benefits of doing so? How will it affect you, the person you want to warn others about, and the people you want to warn? Alternatives: What are the alternatives to doing so? Can you talk to the person directly, report them to the authorities, or seek professional help?

This is a discussion in the monthly self-evaluation series where we aim to create a rubric for each evaluation topic.
๐ [A4] Field Support
๐Black: This part is about how well we respond and resolve issues on the field. Assuming we are using the same scale to map the lack of failures to a grade, let's define what constitutes a failure.
Tanya: Providing wrong information, being the cause of the issue, delay in responding to issues that other teams are not responding to.Sasha: I think if it is within something we can respond to and no one responds within 1 day then it is a fail.Ledia: To tally the failure rate, won't you need to track the total number of support quests?Tanya: I think that is doable, there aren't that many field support quests.Ledia: @StarTree, how many are there in 2023?StarTree: There are 96 entries in 2023. StarTree will add an area tag "FLD" for each unique issue!StarTree: There are 29 field quests with 3 fails! That is 89% and passes for an A (>=88%)!Zoey: OMG it is almost a B. XDBlack thanks all for confirming that the evalution can work.
What are good ways of storing passwords to physical things?
Tape on Wallet
Write them on pieces of paper and tape them on wallet. Taping can make them waterproof.
Save on phone as photos
Take a photo of them as written notes, then save as photos on the phone. The photos are backed up to the cloud, then they won't be lost even if the phone is lost.
Save on Google Doc or Sheet
If you also want a paper copy, you could print it instead of manually copying one one piece of paper to another.

This is a routine monthly status update for Cardinal Quest for May.
StarTree: There are 9 open quests, 392 quest hours, 110 side quests, 0 prep quests, and 6 unresolved failures remaining!
P4: P4 had already imported for the potion quest.Tanya: StarTree please update the trackers.StarTree: Done!@Cardinal is now Rank C.Tanya: Since that was quick, let's also update for Failure Analysis.
StarTree: There is no HQ topic since last time and Casey started merging some of those many tags!Casey: The next one I am looking at is HBT. It was about key keeping habits. The solution we had was to define a protocol. I think protocol needs a code as it is different from our other solutions. StarTree: Added PTC (Protocol)!Zoey: FLD is an area code that means Field. It is a code about where the failure occurs or is discovered.Tanya: For now let's group it among Severity/Effect. Zoey: There should be a better term for it. Let me ask ChatGPT.ChatGPT: "Defect detection phase" is a stage in software development where defects are identified and addressed before the software is released. Examples of defect dection phases are: requirements phase, design phase, testing phase, and Production phaseZoey: Does this apply to us?Ledia: I think the main question is why we are tagging it and how would tagging it FLD help us.Tanya: Normally a failure at the field is what we want to avoid because it is costly to fix. We are not tracking costs. But FLD failures usually need to be fixed ASAP. So for me that tag is more about severity than anything else. We are marking it in order to revisit and make sure that they won't happen again.Ledia: Then I would agree that for us, for now, it is a severity tag. We could change it later.Zoey: Added.Ledia: I think there is something wrong with our analysis tracking. Many of the items have a tag but not a counter measure tag. Yet they are marked done.Tanya: StarTree, could you mark all entries that have a countermeasure "2"?StarTree: The script how counts 54 unresolved failures!Tanya: I think we can check them off within this month on the field. So let's continue with naming the failure codes.Casey: There is LST which means Lost. It is for things that got lost. Tanya: Severity code.Casey: By the way I couldn't find the bicycle bells. I thought I brought them to the garage. Or at least to the kitchen. LRRH: @Kisaragi have you seen the bells?Kisaragi: I did not see the bells.Zoey: Where did you see them last, Casey?Casey: In my room. But I don't see them anymore. The point was, I think I was bringing them from my room to the garage this morning.Tanya: What else did you bring?Casey: A stack of shopping bags to be donated. The stack of bags are still in the garage, but I don't see the bells. Casey: I searched the trash cans also but don't see them.Tanya: I hope they turn up. StarTree: Added LST...!Tanya: I think we are almost done with all the codes. Let's finish them.StarTree: The last one is SFT and LSL about an incident of a near-miss head injury!Ledia: I think SFT means safety. That could be severity code. But what is LSL?StarTree: StarTree does not have a record on who added the tag, but Red was the person invovled in the incident!LRRH: I took a shortcut and hit something of an odd shape. It broke protect.Tanya: If no one remember what LSL means lets remove it.Ledia: What is the countermeasure of this incident?LRRH: Look up before standing up? Notice hazards before approaching?StarTree: That entry currently has a tag "TSN"Ledia: I don't see how TSN can be a countermeasure. I think it would be a protocol.Tanya: I think that was probably because all training protocols should be in TSN. But I don't remember there is a safety training section.Tanya: StarTree please add a safety section and add review safety section as a CAL entry.StarTree: StarTree finds that there is already a section on safety at the HTML version of the TSN! There is a note "Choose a path clear of hazards to the head." StarTree now adds, "Look up before standing up or stand up slowly."Tanya: We shall review and add that that section regularly.Safety review is now added to the calendar.@Cardinal is now Rank A.Tanya thanks all for the improvements.
Insider trading is the illegal practice of buying or selling securities based on non-public information, giving insiders an unfair advantage and undermining public trust in financial markets. It can result in civil and criminal charges, including fines and imprisonment.
Example: Martha Stewart (2004)
Martha Stewart was convicted in 2004 of insider trading after receiving information from her broker about the sale of ImClone Systems stock. She sold the stock just before the FDA rejected the company's application for a new drug, which caused the stock price to drop. She was sentenced to prison, home confinement, and supervised release, and was fined and banned from serving as a public company director or officer for five years.

The Law Game continues.
Natalie: Please be aware that the content may not be appropriate for children.Natalie: Please note that we play this game from a philosophical standpoint. The answers are not meant to be representative of all jurisdictions.
[12] Judicial discretion
๐๏ธNatalie: If a court feels that a statute is undesirable, even though the statute's meaning is clear, can the court refuse to uphold it?
Tanya: With separation of power, I would say no. The court may only choose the lightest sentence.Natalie: Under the "Plain Meaning Rule", if the language and meaning of a statute are clear, the court must apply it with the exception if it would lead to oppression, injustice, or an absurd result.
[13] Exceptions
๐๏ธNatalie: A state has a ciminal statute that mandates that remarriage by a person who has a living spouse will constitute bigamy, unless the spouse has been inexplicably missing for at least seven years. A woman remarries three years after her husband disappears, under the good faith belief that the husband is dead. Is she guilty of bigamy according to the majority rule?
Sasha: Yes, because the statue is clear. Natalie: Yes, under the principle "expressio unius, exclusio alterius," inclusion of one implies the intention to exclude others. In this case, since the statute has an exception of a seven year wait, but did not include a good faith exception, most courts would decide that the legislature did not intend for there to be a good faith exception.
[14] Change in Statute
๐๏ธNatalie: A man is serving a two-year jail sentence for serving alcohol to a person of age 20. While he is impriosoned, the statute is repealed in part, such that the offense only covers minors under age 18, instead of 21. Must the man be released from prison?
Casey: I hope the answer is yes.Sasha: But he was convicted while the legal age was 21. He knew it was illegal.Tanya: I think if a law is 'repealed', it should be interpreted as if the law never existed. So in this case, the man shall be released immediately.Natalie: The term repeal does not imply treating a statute as if it never passed. Repealing a statute does not exonerate a person whose judgement has become final. Some states have a saving provision where prosecution may continue with the statute that exists at the time of the crime.

{"cmd":"url","url":"https://bigthink.com/thinking/4-hardest-unsolved-problems-philosophy/","desc":"[link]"}
The consciousness problem is the challenge of explaining how and why we have subjective experiences of the world. It is one of the most fundamental and perplexing questions in philosophy and science. How does the brain produce the mind? How can physical processes give rise to qualia, the felt sensations and emotions that make up our conscious experience?
Existence
{"cmd":"url","url":"https://bigthink.com/thinking/4-hardest-unsolved-problems-philosophy/","desc":"[link]"}
The philosophical problem of having something rather than nothing is about the reason for basic existence. It asks why there is anything at all, or why there is not nothing instead of something. This question has been raised by many philosophers and physicists, such as Leibniz, Wittgenstein, and Heidegger. Some possible answers to this question are based on God, gravity, quantum fluctuations, or multiverses. However, none of these answers are conclusive or satisfactory. The problem of having something rather than nothing remains a profound and puzzling mystery.
The Ship of Theseus
{"cmd":"url","url":"https://bigthink.com/thinking/4-hardest-unsolved-problems-philosophy/","desc":"[link]"}
The Ship of Theseus is a philosophical puzzle that explores the nature of identity and persistence. It asks whether an object that has all of its parts replaced over time remains the same object or becomes a different one. For example, if a wooden ship is gradually repaired with new planks until none of the original ones remain, is it still the same ship?
The demarcation problem
{"cmd":"url","url":"https://bigthink.com/thinking/4-hardest-unsolved-problems-philosophy/","desc":"[link]"}
The demarcation problem is the question of how to distinguish between scientific and non-scientific knowledge. It is a philosophical challenge that has implications for the validity and reliability of different claims and methods. Some possible criteria for demarcation are falsifiability, empirical evidence, testability, and logical consistency.

StarTree submitted a request!Tanya: There is also no more Twitter hit.Evelyn: I think the process for LRRH stopped her from posting.Zoey: There is traffic on Nextdoor but there there is no mention of 'Arcacianism'.Sasha: The term is pretty cultish.Black: From Nextdoor, we need nodes for "Community Principles", "Citizen Patrol", and "Weapon ownership"Sasha: On Google Search Console, it seems that Google thinks the http URL is the canonical URL, not the https URL. StarTree added the http URL as property and it is now being processed!Tanya: Let's first make a community principle node for Arcacianism / @Carrot.StarTree: StarTree listed them under @Carrot! Tanya: Let's make that a goal for this weekend to create and populate those three nodes.@Carrot is now Rank B.
A healthy community has more skilled people to fill community roles than what the community needs. This allows community members to rotate, take breaks, cross-audit, and create as many task forces as needed to handle community needs.
Black: To that end, a healthy community provides free training for those skilling up to fill those roles and opportunities to get actual experience.

A healthy community has a high sense of belong and happiness among the member. This is iin-part supported by a community with sufficient ownership and learning so that everyone can find a respectable role in the community.
Evelyn: When a community let people fill roles they want, the community becomes more happy.
Caretakers Inclusion
A healthy community provides its caretakers the option to reside in the same community they take care.
Compensation
Majority opinion does not grant permission to rule over the minority, but might help gather compensation to negotiate with the minority.
Competence in handling internal distrubances
A healthy community can handle internal distrubances by itself quicker than calling upon neighboring communities for help.
Black: This is not a comment against mutual aid or effective use of shared resources, but a measure of a community health. An analogy is that a person who can stand and support their own weight is more healthy than those who rely on others on support.
People-First Principle
A healthy community addresses the needs of individuals instead of requiring individuals to address the needs of the community.
People-first principle is
Coordinator: "We have a block requesting extra patrol to reduce crime. Please sign up and help them."
People-first principle is not
Leader: "The crime rate in our city is too high, therefore every block must assign a block leader and patrol."
Black: This is not a comment against mutual aid or effective use of shared resources, but a measure of a community health. An analogy is that a person who can stand and support their own weight is more healthy than those who rely on others on support.
Selfcare Principle
A healthy community lets people help each other.
Tanya: This principle includes cases where a person helps themself, and does not include cases where a person helps themself through hurting others.Fina: There is no difference if the person appoints a helper that is also the one the community would have assigned. This principle covers that cases when the person wants a helper other than the one the community provides. This principle maintains the person, not the community, has the right to choose their helper.
Upper limit of possessions
A healthy community does not have a mechanism that would allow a person to own so many possessions or resources to the point that some members of the community cannot meet their basic needs.
LRRH: Available living places grow slower than available people and technology to do work. As technology advances, the value of a person's work is supposed to go to zero. This means that a sustainable society cannot make people participate in full competition in living spaces. A person should have a living space as long as they are "good enough". The availability of that space comes from having laws against people owning excess living spaces.
Citizen Patrol provides a routine opportunity for emergency prevention and preparation.
Citizen Patrol is an organized protocol where voluntary community members patrols the neighborhood for improved safety and awareness of the surrounding.
Purposes & Key Benefits
โญ Identify safety hazards
โญ Connect community members
โญ Skill up community members
โญ Increase community awareness
โญ Promote community improvements
โญ Increase cross-checking and auditing
โญ Routine practices of emergency protocols
Protocol
Planning
Map the areas requested help. Match helpers to where they can help considering the following:
Minimum Competence
Consider the minimul competence for the helper that would not make the situation worse. Consider not only the skills of the helper, but in combination to the area and those at the area.
Replacement and Reinforcement
In general, the commander center cannot forbid a mutually agreed service between the requester and the helper. For matches that remain risky, offer more competent help as replacement or supervisor as they become available.
Watchers in a Car
Team
Have separate people in the car do the following if they cannot be safely done by the same person: 1) Drive. 2) Record. 3) Report/Call for help.
Setup
Park at a location with good view of the surrounding and easy to drive away if attacked. Park at a spot that makes it clear if someone is appraoching you and not other objects of interest. Park for egress. Lockdoors and close windows except for venting.
If someone suspicious is sighted
Take pictures or video and submit. If they approach, start the engine of the car and identify yourself as a watcher vehicle. If they attack, drive away and sound the horn.
Protocol without technology
This section describes the protocol without the help of technology (smart phone apps).
1๏ธโฃ Establish an incident command center which handles the following: helper roster, who is on patrol and when they should be back, and the list of known issues and hazards. The main task of the command center is to account for the safe return of patrollers and to coordinate efforts to cover needed areas.
2๏ธโฃ Maintaining a list of issues and hazards. This information is collected by patrollers and compiled by the command center. A copy of which allows a patroller confirm the status of an issue, and to look for similar issues that are not reported.
3๏ธโฃ Training Manual. The training manual is adopted to the skill and local issues to help patrollers skill up as they perform inspections.
4๏ธโฃ Quest board. A quest board shows area or time that lack patrol for community members to sign up.
5๏ธโฃ Patroller Safety. The patroller team is not asked to handle any situation that they are not competent in handling. They should notify the command center in such case to call on competent members.
Protocol against lone melee attacker
This is for the context when an attacker with a melee weapon (such as a knife) is on the loose.
1๏ธโฃ Define a relevant scale of protection for people to assess their own safety. The goal is to keep people safe while knowing where the attacker is so that the attacker can be stopped.
2๏ธโฃ Let people move to safe places as much as possible. For people that cannot move to safer places, offer to increase the safety where they are.
Safety measures in order of increasing safety
* Buddy System: Stay or travel with others
* Stay with others with someone ready to record and call for help
* Mobile Sentry: Set up a unit of two or more people in a vehicle that can watch, record, call for help, and retreat as needed.
* Sentry Network: Arrange mobile or stationary sentries so that each sentry is within sight of at least one other.
* Stay inside a shelter and observe with remote cameras or drones.
FAQ
Q: Shouldn't professionals do this?
While professional (people who are hired by the community to patrol / inspect) could perform the tasks, having only professionals perform the tasks would deprive the community the opportunity skill up, bond, and develop the passion for taking care of the community. Hiring of professionals may also lead to the following issues that are less likely to happen when the same task is performed by competent and passionate members:
๐ฉ A professional may hide an issue that they are responsible for fixing.
๐ฉ A professional may cut corners to reduce their effort for the payment.
๐ฉ A professional may create or prolong issues for their job security.
๐ฉ A professional may exploit the community's lack of expertise to charge higher fees or recommend unnecessary work.
A healthy community phases out its reliance on professional but freely skills up its members on all tasks related to the safety and function of the community.
Q: What if there are not enough volunteers?
First, the community needs to have such protocol to confirm that the community has no volunteer because a passion cannot develop if the community does not have an opportunity for it to exist. Once the protocol is in-place, the proportion between professional and volunteer patrols become seamless. The community can hire professionals as need to cover areas that lack volunteers, or offer community credits for needed slots. The protocol allows the professional to have at least one competitor, the voluntary community members, and opens the door for other professional competitors as inspectors or inspector trainers.
Weapon ownership laws resolve the situations when different sub-populations hold different views on weapon ownership. The fundamental philosophy is the same as the treatment of possession and transportation of hazardous substances involving zoning and declarations.
Principles
Optional Zones
An optional zone is a zone where a person does not "need" to enter. The owner of such zone may impose any rules regarding the entrance requirement, including whether the zone allows carrying of weapons of any kind.
Example
A restaurant may declare that it is a no-gun zone. Then anyone who enters with guns is violating the restaurant owner's autonomy.
Violator pays for enforcement costs
The violator of a law is responsible for the cost of the enforcement of the law. When the enforcement is prepare initiailly without a known violator, a community could solicit backers (sponsors). When a violator is found, the violator pays back the backers.
Compensate dissenters outside optional zone
To enact a law that restricts civil rights, promoters of the law have a responsibility to negotiate and compensate the dissenters in the zone. The dissenters are under no obligation to compromise.
Example:
A community wants to become a gun-free zone but there are dissenting residence in the community. A moral resolution is to negotiate with the dissenters and compensate for their costs to relocate.
Popularity does not justify infringement of rights, but could help spread the burden of compensation.
Hazard Range
Possession and transportation of any hazardous substance requires notification to anyone entering the hazard range if the substance becomes active to do harm. An optional zone has the right to waive such notice when it has enough clearance to contain the hazard range entirely within its boundaries.
Example:
A person has a gun with a range of 300m. To carry it loaded, the person needs to notify anyone within range. Since people 300m away cannot be expected to be able to see the gun, a siren might be required when the gun becomes loaded. An optional zone may waive the requirement of siren for qualified/licensed individuals.
Individual responsibility of violations
An intruder who violates the laws of an optional zone is responsible for the crime, not the other members of the zone they originate unless it is an invasion promoted by the originating zone.
Example:
A person carries a gun from a non-gun-free zone into a gun-free zone. While the gun-free zone may hold the intruder responsible for the enforcement of the entire gun-free zone, the gun-free zone does not have a standing to hold the non-gun-free zone responsible for checking people who exit the zone.
Additional from Hospitalian Laws
When an intruder is caught, the violated zone becomes eligible to, after a fair trial, execute the intruder and gain the corresponding area from the intruder's zone of origin. It is the responsibility of the intruder or its zone of origin to bargain for alternative resolutions that would prevent future occurences.

This discussion is for the topic Principles for Healthy Community. If time allows we could continue with Weapon Laws and Citizen Patrol.
๐ฏ Principles of Healthy Community node
Black: This topic came about at Nextdoor. I listed some principles across several posts. I think there should be a node listing all of them.
StarTree: There is a similar node 202301092123|Better World Metrics, should there be a new node?Black: I think for now please make a new node first. We might merge them later.StarTree: The new node is 202305071032|here!Black: There will be a number of principles so please add the search structure.StarTree: Done!Black: So I will start adding principles. We could further organize them as needed.
Abundance in skills to fill roles
๐๏ธBlack: A healthy community has more skilled people to fill community roles than what the community needs. This allows community members to rotate, take breaks, and have the skill necessary to cross-monitor the performance of those performing the role.
Black: To that end, a healthy community provides free training for willing individuals to skill up to fill those roles and opportunities to get actual experience.
Effect: Immediate Local Response
๐๏ธBlack: Since a healthy community has more skilled personnel than what is needed, a healthy community seamlessly calls upon the community to handle emergencies. A healthy community can handle internal distrubance by itself faster than calling for outside help.
Black: This is not a comment against mutual aid arrangements with other communities. This is just a metric on what "healthy" means, as in a healthy person can stand on their own feet and support their own weight without relying on someone else who can do more than support their own weight.
Black: What other principles do you think are there? I think we should add at least one more from someone else before moving onto the next topic.Evelyn: Shouldn't there be a principle on happiness? That a healthy community is happy?Black: I think I do see a slight difference in metrics and principles. I think happiness is a metric, and the principle for that would be about how a community improves on that metric.Tanya: Let's see what Evelyn puts first.
Belonging and Happiness
๐Evelyn: A healthy community has a high sense of belong and happiness among the member. This is iin-part supported by a community with sufficient ownership and learning so that everyone can find a respectable role in the community.
Evelyn: I think this point is quite close to what Black said but my focus is that if you let people fill roles they want make the community more happy.Tanya: Instead of deciding what are metrics and what are principles, let's just record everything and sort them later as needed. Even if they sound duplicate. Tanya: Maybe if there are 20 or more entries, we would consider sorting them.Black: Agreed.
Meeting needs
โญLRRH: A healthy community is where people's basic needs are met. And a healthy way for that to happen is to ensure that no one can amass excess possession in a way that prevents a community member from getting what they need.
LRRH: I feel that this section could be really long because presumably Each philosophy is based on some principle about what a healthy community should have. Are we really going to list all types of freedoms and rights here?Black: I think a difference between a metric and a principle is that a principle can simultaneously improve multiple metrics. So, as long as you follow the principles, your community will improve regardless what metric people use to measure health.Tanya: So you start with a metric, and come up with principles that would let a community improve on such metric.LRRH: So in this case, you mean meeting needs is a metric, but the concept "people shouldn't have excess possessions in a way that prevent others from meeting their basic needs" is a principle.Black: I think yes.LRRH: Then I'll call that the upper limit principle.
Caretakers inclusion
๐๏ธFina: A healthy community provides its caretakers the option to reside in the same community they take care.
Fina: This ties into what Red said. It doesn't tell you how it is done, but you would know if it is violated.Evelyn: I think even though the principle doesn't show the path, it is important as a principle.
Black: I think this is a good number to start. Let's switch gear and made nodes for the other topics.Tanya: I think we should add the Arcacian Principle, at least the first half.
Let people help each other
๐๏ธTanya: A healthy community lets people help each other. This principle includes cases where a person helps themself, and does not include cases where a person helps themself through hurting others.
Fina: In Stewardism, the shorter name for that is Self-care Principle.Evelyn: How do you draw the connection that letting people help themselves result in a more healthy community?Fina: When a person has wants to choose self-help or appoint a willful helper and the system forbids so, the person stays without help for longer. There is no difference if the person appoints a helper that is also the help the system would have assigned.Evelyn: Okay.
@Carrot is now rank A.StarTree: Citizen Patrol now has a 202305071257|node!
Citizen Patrol
๐กBlack: Citizen Patrol is an organized protocol where members of a community patrols the neighborhood for improved safety and awareness of the surrounding.
Black: This patrol routine is not meant to happen only when the community is looking for a criminal on the loose. It is also for noticing safety hazards, areas for maintenance, or just exercise and community bonding. The organization methods follows the incident command structure which is also used during emergencies.Black: Example of situations where a citizen patrol would help: 1) Provide a routine opportunity to practice incident command. 2) Provide a routine opportunity for community members to know each other. 3) Orient the community members on how they may improve the safety and quality of the surrounding. 4) Identify naturally occuring emergencies such as people who collapse from a stroke. 5) Identify or deter man-made situations such as car crashes and crimes.Black: Q: Why shouldn't the police do this?Black: A: The police can certainly do this, but when the police force is small and does this exclusively this could take away the community's opportunity to be familiar with the protocol and their readiness in using it to handle emergencies.๐กBlack: Protocol. The following shows the general protocol independent to the technology that implements it. (It is understood that using integrated smart phone apps can make this easy, but the general protocol is meant to be functional even after all electronics are fried.)
Black: Establish an incident command center. The role of the command center is to track patrollers so that it knows when a team of patrols has not returned. As a helper/patroller, register or notify the center before making the loop.Black: The command center keeps log of incidents and inform the next team to check for status updates. Did areas marked as hazardous get worse?Black: The command center updates its safety inspection and training manual and adapt it to include local points according to the skill levels of the citizen patrols/safety inspectors. Black: When there is a time or area where patrols are needed, the command center creates a quest for citizens to sign up.Black: In all cases, a team is not meant to handle any situation they are not comfortable in handling. They should inform the command center of all emergencies so the center can dispatch appropriate help.Black: That's all I can think of that is directly about citizen patrol. What else do others want to add or change?Tanya: @StarTree please first post that on the node.StarTree: Done!Sasha: What if people don't have the time to do that, or what if they want to be compensated for doing so?Black: In a quest society, the normal compensation is community credit. If you sign up for a slot in demand you get more credits. The main difference between that and the status quo is that the community can dynamically offset the need to hire anyone when it itself has enough passion to take care of itself.Black: But if the system has no mean to do so from the start, then the community loses an opportunity to develop its own passion in that area.Tanya: I think in terms of content that node is sufficient and we could move on to or start the weapon node.StarTree: The node is 202305071516|here!
Weapon Ownership
๐๏ธBlack: The main principle relevant to weapon ownership laws are: 1) An opt in zone is free to set its rules regarding its members such as weapon ownership requirements. 2) A person carrying hazardous substance of any kind has the responsibility to inform its surrounding about the hazard they are carrying.
Black: Together, this means that an opt-in zone can define for itself what weapons can or cannot be concealed or carried.Black: On the Nextdoor thread there was also a principle that if a law cannot infringe on a person's right to self-defense unless it applies to an opt-in zone. But a tax-funded zone is not an opt-in zone if the taxpayer can't opt out of that funding. With that I gave examples on what laws would infringe on such right and what laws would not.StarTree: StarTree doesn't know what to start with!Black: Intro: Weapon ownership laws resolve the situations when different sub-populations hold different views on weapon ownership. The fundamental philosophy is the same as the treatment of possession and transportation of hazardous substances involving zoning and declarations. Black: Principle: Opt-in Zones / Preferential Zones. An optional zone is a zone where a person does not "need" to enter. The owner of such zone may impose any rules regarding the entrance requirement, including whether the zone allows carrying of weapons of any kind.Black: Violator is responsible for the cost of enforcement. When the enforcement is prepare initiailly without a known violator, a community could solicit backers (sponsors). When a violator is found, the violator pays back the backers. Black: Compensate dissenters outside optional zone: To enact a law that restricts civil rights, promoters of the law have a responsibility to negotiate and compensate the dissenters in the zone. The dissenters are under no obligation to compromise.LRRH: Popularity does not justify infringement of rights, but could help spread the burden of compensation.Black: Range of Caution: Possession and transportation of any hazardous substance requires notification to anyone entering the "blast range" if the substance becomes active to do harm. An optional zone has the right to waive such notice when it has enough clearance to contain the blast range entirely within its boundaries.Black: Individual responsibility of violations: An intruder who violates the laws of an optional zone is responsible for the crime, not the other members of the zone they originate unless it is an invasion promoted by the originating zone.Tanya: Additional from Hospitalian laws: When an intruder is caught, the violated zone becomes eligible to, after a fair trial, execute the intruder and gain the corresponding area from the intruder's zone of origin, as if the intruder decided to migrate to the violated zone for the rest of their life. It becomes the responsibility of the intruder or its zone of origin to bargain for alternative resolutions that would prevent future occurences.Evelyn: I think that added part is a little scary and prone for abuse.Tanya: Without it the baseline of negotiation is unclear.Tanya: Because the violated thing is not an individual, any member of the violated zone may vouch for the intruder and become their supervisor.Evelyn: If someone carries a gun into a zone, learns that it is a gun-free zone, and on their way out was caught, then they could be executed?Tanya: The moment you found that you broken a serious rule you are supposed to turn yourself in and be escorted out or have your gun impounded until you leave. Reason is applied to judge whether the offender is amiss or a malicious intruder. Hospitalian zones are normally not weapon-free, so in this case we are really talking about someone claiming that have smuggled in high power weapon "by mistake", which is absurd.Tanya: If you own those weapon you should already know the law of the zones you are heading. Tanya: I would like to check responses and react to responses current at Nextdoor.
Obstacles
๐Tanya: So I was reading the responses and am trying to name the obstacles in the discussion. It seems that a main obstacle is that people cannot cater the concept that current system has a problem, or that they could help address that problem.
Sasha: Could you be more specific?Tanya: For example, on one night the attacker was spotted by a stationary group of witnesses three times, but the group could not produce one photo or video about any of those exchanges, including the last one where the attacker came into melee range and attacked with a knife. That means that the group did not have the capability or readiness to record. But no one is admitting that as a factual defficiency.Sasha: They seem territorial. They don't want other people to look at the problem they haven't solved.Tanya: We need a node and countermeasure against that behavior.

For the discussion at Nextdoor, I think there is a lot to explore and learn even if there is no reply. I started a CHK section in the Google Sheets. Maybe we also need a Google Doc for annotations.
Tanya: What is the format of this thread?Evelyn: I am not sure. ๐ I think the document should start with a summary of the prompt and where the participants stand. After that maybe extended explanations and analysis. Evelyn: Somehow we should also look at how things are said to improve future discussions. But I am not sure where would be a good place for that. Such as whether it should be at the end of the document, or an entirely separate document.Tanya: I think if it is fair it could be in the same document. Although it is hard to imagine that wouldn't make some participants angry.Sasha: I think that is part of our puzzle: How to point out is misconduct in a way that makes people want to behave better.Black: Let's start with the prompt and summary of standpoints.Black: The context was that a serial killing started happening, and someone (an ordinary citizen) asked if there is more they could do.StarTree: (At this point the group switched to the document. Points will be accounted at the Guild Log!)Evelyn: Maybe we should try to keep logging our discussion for the document here. I'll try to summarize next time. ๐ Evelyn thanks all for creating the document.
Advantage: Roll an extra die for each advantage and succeed if any roll succeeds. Disadvantage: Roll an extra die for each disadvantage and fail if any roll fails.
Advantage and disadvantages cancel out each other when applied to the same roll.
Advantages can be gained from in-game and outside-game reason as the GM finds appropriate to encourage roleplay or to perform real life tasks.
Approach is a simplification of 18 FATE CORE skills into 6: Careful, Clever, Flashy, Forceful, Quick, Sneaky.
Cardinal Core
Approaches (as defined in FATE Accelerated) are zero-cost skills (as recognized in Cardinal Core). The player character gets an advantage when performing an action they are recognized for.
Combat
Magic Bakery Mod: Similar to hitpoints, combat skills can be imported based on a player's actual physical ability. A basic attack deals 1 damage. A character's skill proficiency determines whether their attack would connect if the target does not dodge. Armor can be used to negate damage. An armor rating of 1 negates an attack that deals 1 damage or lower. Healing skills can be used to recover hit points.
Group Roll
A group roll simulates a group effort and luck by letting the heros roll dice and use the collective sum, average, the highest, or the lowest.
Competitive Implementation
The GM gives a prompt asking for ideas or hero actions. Each hero makes a roll for their choice. The GM combines the ideas or actions for the heroes who roll high enough, and if there is a conflict, the GM takes the option with the higher roll.
Hit Point
Magic Bakery
Player Character hit points are based on actual constitution of the player according to the following guideline:

Dungeon - 20230917
In @Dungeon, when we fight a monster with unknown total hitpoints. We learn that a monster has more hitpoint for each attack we hit without defeating it. As such the spent hitpoint bar of the monster glows longer as we fight. At the end when the monster is defeated, we know how many hitpoints it has for next time.

Intelligent people are effective in how they live and handle themselves. You could become more intelligent by tackling inefficiencies in everyday life.
Being Punctual
Being punctual involves knowing yourself, the discipline to manage yourself, and the foresight to prepare for the occassion.
Being Observant
Intelligent people notice things around them, including things to be cautious about and things to be appreciated. Do you notice what is dangerous around you? Do you notice areas where you can make a difference? Do you notice when others make an effort to improve things? Can you identify a person's skill level, emotions, and intentions?
Argument Your Capacity
Intelligent people do not let their physical and mental limits limit their effectiveness. Can't remember everything that is important? Write it down, put it on a calendar, create a routine. Let nothing stop you from doing what is good.
Making Eye Contact
Being able to make eye contact is a sign of confidence in yourself and your relation with the person you are looking at. If you find that you cannot make good eye contact, are you not ready to interact? Are you confused or uncertain about the relation between you and others? Intelligent people resolve those issues and identify the role they have in making each interaction pleasant, rewarding, and effective.
Solving Problems
Intelligent people can solve problems and identify when others are really asking for a problem to be solved. When a problem is not a solitary puzzle, being able to identify the problems, gather information from people who might be reluctant to disclose, and organize people of different interests to collaborate for an effective resolution are all parts of problem-solving.
Masterful Vibe
Intelligent people can read the atmosphere and lighten the room. They can respectfully identify and deal with all situations. Doing so includes being able to look after oneself, dressing appropriately, and having enough understanding of the environment and people involved to make oneself naturally fitting and uplifting to the situation.

Let's continue the discussion from "Yesterday" MBST.
LRRH: Magic Bakery Standard Time.Zoey: ๐คฃ
๐ฏ Overall Policy
LRRH: The Magic Bakery residents section has tenants who don't follow "rules" or are late on rent. Last time we were talking about house remaking the house rules. At the same time there is a CHK section about this issue. I think right now we should discuss the overall intention and to update the CHK.
Tanya: I think the residential section needs its own charter. But you may consider that a lower priority than updating CHK.LRRH: So far a charter is for defining what actions are worth guild credits. So that would basically be Charter 27, but with only maintenance of the residential section.Tanya: There you can define the residency requirements, which are presummably different from the requirements to earn guild XP. Since you don't need to be a resident to earn Guild XP.LRRH: Okay. So, the requirements: I would say that the main requirement is that you need to be a good person, such as not cheating about rules and not hiding when you break things. To me, that is more important than the ability to "pay rent".Evelyn: What if someone who is currently a resisdent doesn't meet the requirement? Should they be evicted?LRRH: I think the answer is Yes. And I want to argue that it is Arcacian to do so because awarding recidency to someone who breaks rule over someone who does not would be injustice to those who choose to be good.Evelyn: What if they have nowhere else to go?Ledia: What if they do?LRRH: I think for some of the violations, it is just a matter of living style. There should be plenty of places where they would be more compatible. If we don't "kick them out", we can't create the home we want. We are sacrificing for no reason.Sasha: I agree with Red.Evelyn: What if they can change their behavior and be compatible?Sasha: The point is that they don't want to. Otherwise they won't be breaking the rules. And if there are better places out there, why would we want to trouble outselves in asking them to change? There are other places where they can be they way they want.Evelyn: But they are here, so there is something they want here.Zoey: Because the rent is cheap. XDLedia: The guild needs to be able to tell if it is being exploited.Evelyn: I need evidence that they could be elsewhere.Zoey: That is just rental ads. XDEvelyn: There is only one other place of the same price range. If they have problem paying rent now they would have problem paying that.Zoey: I see at least two. You can tell them to start looking or they would miss good deals.LRRH: I want to switch gear and first talk about what I want and new plans for the place.
๐งญ House Plans
LRRH: Here are some plans for the residential section to help promote Arcacian values.
Smoke Free: I want the place to be smoke free including the yards.
LRRH: There is currently 1 violator. They smoke in the backyard and leaves buds there. They don't clean up until asked to do so. But even if they clean up, I don't want the place to have smoking because there are kids nearby.Cleaning up: People who use the common area should clean up.
LRRH: I think there is at least 1, but possibly only 1 violator.Resource Library: I want to have a section where people can come and check out items.
LRRH: The plan is to use the garage. There we could place equipment and board games for people to check out. There is currently 1 violator preventing this from happening by having clutters and an inoperable car in the garage.Quiet Hours: I want the place to be quiet at night.
LRRH: This should be quite easily done by requiring headphones at night. There is currently 1 violator.Tanya: How many violators are there total?LRRH: Two. The first three issues are for violator 1. The last issue is for violator 2.Ledia: And you meant both of them are behind on rent?LRRH: Yes.Tanya: I think among the issues, Smoking is the biggest issue. If someone is smoking outside, others can't open their windows.Tanya: Next in severity is cleaning up after oneself.Ledia: I don't think someone can just quit smoking even if they really want to stay. But instead of telling them: "I want this place to be smoke free", you should tell them all plans at once so that they don't quit smoking just for you to say, "now I want this place to be clean", and then "I want your car out of the garage."Zoey: I think you could just say you have other plans for the place without saying what those plans are. Unless they ask.Ledia: I think they would ask for sure, and if your initial message is too short it would sound really cold.Zoey: I guess that's true. ๐คLRRH: Are we at the point of crafting a message for Violator 1? The points being smoking, keeping places clean, and car in garage.Sasha: Yes. Let's get it rolling.
๐ Draft Message to Violator 1
Zoey: Hmm.. I asked ChatGPT to create a message:ChatGPT: Dear [Tenant's Name], I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to follow up on my previous message regarding a few important matters that I think will contribute to a more comfortable and enjoyable living environment for everyone in the building. I wanted to kindly remind all tenants that smoking is not permitted in any outdoor areas, including the yards. As you may be aware, smoking can be detrimental to both the health and comfort of other tenants in the building, and I would like to ensure that everyone is able to enjoy a smoke-free living space, both indoors and outdoors. In addition to maintaining a smoke-free environment, I would like to reiterate the importance of keeping the kitchen and common areas clean and tidy, as well as clearing any clutter and inoperable cars from the garage. Thank you for your cooperation in these matters. By working together, we can create a more comfortable and enjoyable living environment for all tenants. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to me. Best regards, [Your Name]Ledia: I think that is too robotic.LRRH: Could I start with what I would have said and upgrade it to something more understandable?LRRH: Hello [name], I think I want to make the house and the yards smoke free and add furniture in the garage. I think it is unreasonable to ask you to stop smoking, so I want you to know the plans as soon as possible so you may start looking for a place well before fall when school starts. If you want to stay by quitting smoking, I still want the kitchen area to be kept clean after each use and to free up space in the garage. Could you start looking and plan to move out by June, or if you sign a lease starts in the fall, by the time the lease starts?Ledia: I think you need a timeline of when they are expected to be out.LRRH: By the end of June? "Could you start looking and plan to move out by June, or if you sign a lease that starts in the fall, by the time the lease starts?Evelyn: I think you don't need the part, "I think it is unreasonable to ask you to stop smoking."LRRH: So if I send this message, we still need another notice for eviction.Evelyn: How about you first ask them if they can manage not smoking in the yards?LRRH: I think it is hard to create that casual opportunity because it is hard to ask without showing the whole picture and hard to do so without another tenant listening.Evelyn: Okay.LRRH: So next is the prepare the actual notice for eviction. It should be prepared now and sent by next week to keep the move out day of June 30.Zoey: For the record, the message is, "Hello [Name], I want to make the house and the yards smoke-free and have more space in the garage. If you want to stay by not smoking here, I still want the kitchen area to be kept clean after each use, free up space in the garage, and for your past due rent to decrease every two weeks. The four issues together seem too much to resolve, so I want to let you know now so you may start looking for a place before fall when school starts. Could you please start looking and plan to move out by June 30? (Or if you sign a lease in June that starts in the fall, by the time the lease starts.)"Zoey: And ChatGPT says, "Yes, that sounds good! "Past due rent" is a better term to use than "rent owed" as it implies that the rent is already late and needs to be caught up on."Zoey: Also, "A responsible tenant should take prompt action to address the issues mentioned in the message. If they are unable or unwilling to comply with the requests, they should start looking for a new place to live as soon as possible. It is important to communicate with the landlord to discuss any concerns or questions they may have and to work towards a mutually beneficial resolution. Additionally, they should make every effort to keep up with their rent payments and follow the terms of their lease agreement until they move out."Zoey: And, "If the tenant doesn't respond, you could try reaching out to them again to confirm whether they received your message and understand the situation. If they still do not respond or refuse to comply with your requests, you may need to consider taking legal action, such as filing for eviction or hiring a lawyer to negotiate a solution. It's important to consult with your local landlord-tenant laws and regulations to ensure that you are following the proper legal procedures."LRRH: So the next section to prepare is "filing for eviction"
๐๏ธ Eviction Process
โญZoey: There are some pointers from ChatGPT that I will add to CHK.
LRRH: Last time the pay-or-quit notice was a PDF form. Zoey: I don't think anything had changed since. I am adding a link to the form at CHK.LRRH: Okay. In that case I think we could wait until next week.

Hey hey hey! Let's see who gets this hard logic puzzle!
Mikela: Your adventuring party stumbles upon a tea party of three goddesses. Truth always tells the truth. Lies always lies. Dice tells the truth or lies randomly. The goddesses challenge you to identify who is who by asking only three Yes or No questions. You may direct each question to any single one of them. What should you ask?
Sasha: I am pretty sure Tanya got this before.Mikela: Then let's see who is the second person to get it!Ledia: If you ask one of them 'Are you Truth?", then only Dice would possibly say no. Then, IF the one you asked happened to say No, you know that that is Dice. Next, you ask one of the remaining two if that goddess is Dice. To that second question, only Truth would say Yes. By then you know all three.Sasha: What if the first answer is Yes? Then you don't know anything at all. I think each question should be able to make progress.Zoey: I still remember something special about Tanya's answer. It had to do with asking a goddess about another goddess. But I don't remember what the question was.Black: What if you ask Goddess A, "Can you affirm that she will say YES if I ask Goddess B whether you are Truth?" Suppose A is Truth and B is Lies. Then A would say No. Suppose A is Truth and B is Dice, A would also say No. Suppose A is Lies and B is Truth, A would say Yes. If A is Lies and B is Dice, A would also say Yes. If A is Dice, the answer could be either. Ledia: Then maybe you can ask the same question to Goddess B about C?Zoey: I remember the answer was something like that. Let's see if it works.Zoey: Suppose A is Truth, B Lies, and C is Dice. And you ask A, "Do you know for sure if B will confirm you are Truth?" Then A would certainly reply "No". From our perspective, A can only be Truth or Dice. Zoey: Now we ask B the same question about C. B will say Yes. From our perspective, we know that B can only be Lies or Dice.Zoey: Now you repeat the question on C about A. If C says Yes, C is either Lies or Dice. Then, together, only A can be Truth. But we don't know if B or C is Lies.Black: Suppose we represent the possible identites are TLD, TDL, LTD, LDT, DTL, DLT, whomever we ask, we cannot eliminate the D, but we could eliminate the D on another column and get a pattern TLD, LTD, DTL, DLT before asking the second question.Black: If we can get that pattern where the middle goddess can only be Truth of Lies, then we can just ask whether she is Dice and figure the rest with the third question. So the remaining question is how do you know which goddess is not Dice with just the first question.Black: Okay. I figured it out.
๐ Solution
Black: Name the goddesses 1, 2, and 3 and ask Goddess 1 if their identities are in one of these orders: "Truth, Lies, and Dice" or "Lies, Dice, and Truth". (Or if the goddesses are sitting around a circular tea table, ask Goddess 1, "Is Truth sitting to the left of Lies?"Black: If Goddess 1 says Yes, then the possibilities are TLD, LTD, DTL, DLT. If Goddess 1 says No, the possibilities are TDL, LDT, DTL, DLT. So, depending whether the first answer is Yes or No, one of the seats has either Truth or Lies. Black: A second question to the goddess at that seat "Are you Dice?" will identify that goddess because she cannot be Dice, so only Lies would say Yes. Black: After finding the either Truth or Lies with the second question, ask her whether Goddess 1 is Dice and interpret her answer accordingly.Tanya: That was my answer.Mikela: Congratulation!Sasha: I think this puzzle is sufficiently hard so Tanya and Black could get a CHA WIN. Zoey: For the record, ChatGPT gets this completely wrong. XDGood job figuring this out, cheers!

@Board has a quest of upgrading the chat post. What changes would you like to see?
Ivy: I think the goal is to separate the data from the presentation, so that when we want to change how a post look, we just need to change the code.Evelyn: I think it looks fine right now.Black: Every chat post ends with the discussions button. I think that button should be created by the script instead of hardcoded in the html.Ivy: Yes.StarTree: Should there be a macro at the end of a chat post that becomes the discussions button when a chat node is shown?Black: Let's start with that.Sasha: Is there a way for a chat post to expand and collapse as the same object instead of just showing and hiding a hidden object?Ivy: Yes, it would be a button function that sets the class of the button's parent, and shows the last child of the button's parent.Sasha: I think that is what I want to see.StarTree: Creates macro cmd Next. Testing. Adding loop in function. Done for the next block!StarTree: Now making a new function ShowChatEx.

๐ [A5] Upgrade Training Manuals
๐Black: This part is about collecting notes, making and upgrading training manuals. Let's define what each grade means.
Black: It seems that this is the first one where the scale might be different.Tanya: Or it could be the same, if we focus on what it means to "Fail" in this requirement.Ledia: It would be a fail if someone asks for training material and it is missing.Sasha: How would that work? People don't normally ask us for training.Evelyn: What about training among ourselves?Sasha: Wouldn't that be the same as A3?Black: I think this task is about turning our internal documents into something sharable. Ideally 100% of our internal documents would have a sharable form. Black: If we use the same scale, then an A would be 88% of our internal documents are shared.Zoey: What are we using for the percentage? Page count?Tanya: I think it should be per topic.Black: Then the first step is to list the topics. Then we can account for how many topics are done. Grade A means 88 or more % is done.Tanya: I am fine with that plan. @StarTree please make a CAL task for creating a list of training topics.StarTree: Done!Black thanks all for the ideas.

The organizer of a competition has the rights to define participant requirements, while potential participants have the rights to choose whether to participate.
Q: Government funding on sports competitions
In Choice Democracy, a government cannot collect tax to fund something without proportional agreement. Given a budget or public resource to spend on sports, each person decides how their portion is spent. The government schedules the resources based on the people's choices.
Example
A school traditionally has only men's and women's sports competition. To account for people in other categories, the school allows proportional use of the budget and facility on other category choices, such as an

category where anyone may participate.
This node explores how People-first principle applies on whether people may paint a crosswalk rainbow as an expression of inclusiveness. The following is in the order of consideration.
Non-infringement Check
The painting of the crosswalk cannot infringe on individual rights. In general this means the community cannot approve painting of a private crosswalk against the will of its owner. In people-first principle, a public crosswalk is co-owned by its stakeholders, therefore choice democracy can be applied to determine the sites and durations where crosswalks can be painted.
Proportionality Assessment
Suppose the advocates are not asking for a permanent but a temproary repainting of one crosswalk. One percent of a year is about 4 days. Then, under choice democracy, for every 1% consent among the stakeholders, the crosswalk can remain painted for 3.65 days.
>Assessing stakeholder agreement
STEP 1: Let people register as a stakeholder according to eligibility rules.
STEP 2: Assess and display consent among the stakeholders, showing the corresponding duration where the crosswalk may remain painted.
STEP 3: Schedule for the time slot when it would be pained.
>Burder of Assessment
Q: Who has the burden to show that there is enough consent among the stakeholders?
A: Those asking for a change.
In general, this means that the proposal needs to go through a petition or public notice process that shows the advocates have reached out to relevant stakeholders, and obtained enough consent for the change to be considered for resolving any scheduling conflicts.
Stakeholders
Q: Who are the relevant stakeholders?
A: Relevant stakeholders are those who use or take care of the crosswalk. This includes pedestrians and drivers.

[15] Change in Statute
๐๏ธNatalie: Penny is convicted of illegal possion of marijuana, a violation of a state statue. Sentencing is delayed and before sentence is pronounced, the statute is repealed. Can Penny still be sentenced, in most states?
Sasha: Yes. In the normal case a violation is judged according to the law when the crime took place.Natalie: Yes. Most statutes contain a "saving clause" that allows that to happen.
[16] Overlapping sentencing
๐๏ธNatalie: Friday is charged with illegal possession of a handgun, in violation of both state criminal law and a local ordinance. Can he be sentenced under both laws?
Tanya: I think in this case the specific has priority.Natalie: Correct! Punishing Friday in both is called double jeopardy. The local area is considered a political subdivision of the state and not a separate sovereignty.
[17] Attempted Murder
๐๏ธNatalie: David is charged with murder and attempted murder. If he is convicted of murder, can he also be sentenced for attempted murder, since his conviction satisfies the elements of both crimes?
Casey: No. That would be double jeopardy.Fina: In reciprocative law, murder and attempted murder are two separate crimes. Or you could say a person can be convicted of murder if they tried regardless whether they succeed. If the murder succeeds, what changes is the damage.Natalie: Casey is correct. In law it is called "factual merger". It is not permissible to punish for a lesser included offense if there is conviction of a larger offense.
Insurance is financial protection against risks and losses, where individuals and businesses pay premiums to transfer potential burdens to insurance companies, receiving compensation for covered perils and promoting stability. While an Arcacian society allows insurnace to exist, other means to obtain care makes insurance unncessary.

Arcacian Society
Care is free to the person in needs.
Insurance Society
Care is not free to the person in needs. Some people in need cannot afford care. An insurance company may use tactics to avoid providing care.

What conflicts do you face?Ledia: Hmm... I just want to be a paladin who is available to go questing as needed. Zoey: You still have Mira Mira to take care of.Ledia: Exactly.Sasha: Okay, so we have a Paladin who is a boutique keeper. Which is your priority? The shop or questing?Ledia: Questing.Sasha: What happens to the store while you are away?Ledia: I don't imagine being the only one there.Sasha: Unless you give a name, you are the only one. At least that is what I am imagining, that the store is perpetually "in preparation".Ledia: StarTree?StarTree: Wee~~!Zoey: Actually I think Sasha would fit right in at Mira Mira.Sasha: I don't work.Evelyn: I think I can help at Mira Mira also.Ledia: Welcome on board!
Royalty is a business practice of forbidding commercial reuse of creative work unless a portion of the profit goes to the original creator. Typically this happens because the government makes it illegal for the reuser to use the work otherwise.
Arcacian Differences
In an Arcacian society, a person may normally recreate or copy a creative work for commercial purpose given that it is done without deception. Authors of helpful creative works get credits as their work is referenced and reused in derivative works. As a result, the author is paid, but not by the person who creates the derivative work.
Arcacian Registry
Inventions or creative works can be registered to a registry by anyone including the inventor/author, a person who wants to redistribute the work, or a witness. By evaluating the truthfulness of the record and the influence and social benefit of the work, the honor of the author is calculated. The registry is forever retroactive. There is no time limit for a work to be registered.
Effect on Distribution
Since it is legal to produce the exact copy of a creative work as long as it is not done in a deceptive manner, a bakery, for example, can legally print well known cartoon characters on cakes. The bakery does not need to pay royalty to the character creator. The creator is paid through the registry.
Society using Royalty
The bakery needs to pay royalty before they may print on the cakes. This increases the price of the cakes, and makes it harder for a customer to get a cake they want as some bakeries simply don't print them.
Arcacian Society
The bakery can legally print images on the cakes for free. This makes it easier for the customer to get what they want, and easier for the society to assess the impact and compute the honor of the original creator.
In an Arcacian society, the artist author of a cartoon character automatically gets paid through the registry as their work appears on different kinds of merchandises. The artist does not need to strike commercial deals or form business partnership to get paid through mugs, T-shirts, race cars, etc. The artist can concentrate on creating art without middle-persons taking a cut in each leg of the distribution.

Why do you quest? What would make questing more exciting?
Tanya: This was a question I logged to Guild Log last year. I never got around asking it. So I ask it now.
StarTree: It was logged on August 16, 2023!Ledia: I think we need more artefacts to celebrate accomplishments.Tanya: What do you mean by artefacts?Ledia: Such as a a collage. There was an idea of creating a monthly collage so the calendar doesn't have the same image every month.Evelyn: I remember that... quest. I don't think it ever got any progress. ๐ Tanya: Why didn't anyone do that quest?Evelyn: I think it was because hardly anyone of us wants to draw. ๐ 3B: Which is better? A collage or a manga page?Casey: I like the standees. I want more tiles and actually background buildings and things.Evelyn: I like the standees too.LRRH: I want a Magic Bakery Standee.Casey: Let's do it!๐Tanya: For the record, the original question was about an observation that there seemed to be only two mode when people quest: 1) Either they eagerly work on guild quests, or 2) Avoid guild quest and do comfort quests. Anyone wants to comment on that observation?
Sasha: That would happen if the quest is too hard. So you just need to break the quest into smaller tasks so that people would do some and then get hooked and want to finish it.Tanya: I see.Evelyn: I think it would help if we discuss when a quest is too hard. If we don't discuss, it would just sit on the log.Zoey: We should get a list of quests that can be done while watching anime. XDCasey: You can certainly draw while watching anime.Zoey: What about other tasks?Sasha: Well it rules out all quests that require thinking.Evelyn: It might be possible to do Diamond quests while watching anime.P4: You can make paper stars.Tanya: @StarTree please add those ideas to the Anime club node.StarTree: Done!LRRH: I think many quests can be done while watching anime.Sasha: That is if the anime isn't really interesting.Ledia: Ever thought of watching anime with fast forward?Zoey: Don't you already do that?

Citizen citations is a solution of empowering ordinary people to cite and prosecute wrongdoers in a society with a flat hierachy.
Common issues that Citizen Citations solve
In a society without Citizen Citations, reports of wrongdoings may be processed by a centralized authority such as a police department. Such department often operates under a scarcity paradigm where the staff cannot handle all reports, and prioritize them according to departmental agenda.
Natalie: Typically in such system, even if the victim is willing to work on the case, they are forbidden from doing so.Natalie: Citizen Citation solves that bottleneck by empowering people to routinely participate in the citation workflow, allowing willing people to push cases forward.

A definition is bad if it reduces the participants' readiness to continue the discussion.
Black: For example, when the definition is ambiguous and not even the person proposing the definition can consistently tell whether something is defined by it.
Reduces Vocabulary
A definition is bad when it leaves existing concepts unreferrable. Black: For example, a definition, "A loophole is not a loophole when it is tolerable" leaves a hole in the vocabulary to refer to the thing before deciding whether it is tolerable.44: When that happens, couldn't you just make up other words to fill the gap?Black: If someone needs to accommodate then that is evidence that the definition creates a burden to the discussion. It is a bad definition regardless whether someone repairs it. The person introducing and insisting on using bad definitions is damaging the discussion channel.
Factoring
A definition is bad when it needs more words to cover distinct concepts. Black: The vocabulary set that needs only the minimum number of words to describe all concepts can be set to be properly factored. For example, with words {Table, Length, Width, and Height}, many dimensions can be specified. In a vocabulary that is not properly refactored, there might be separate words for tables that are of certain dimensions, but missing the general definition of length, width, or height in describing a table.Black: This is not to say that the vocabulary cannot have words that refers to something specific as a convenient shorthand. The issue is when it is missing words to cover concepts.Black: A properly factored vocabulary covers all cases, which helps expose blindspots during considerations. For example, a vocabulary might have only one word to describe a rulebreaker, "assailant" which is defined or assumed to be angry, hostile and violent, for which countermeasure is creatd in the protocol. If the rulebreaker is not angry, not hostile, or not violet, the protocol could overreact. A failure analysis would reveal that the protocol has blindshots because it did not foresee a rulebreaker need not be the assumed type. Proper factoring would let the protocol maker create an appropriate countermeasure in each of the eight combinations.Black: An improperly factored vocabulary can be harder to learn because there are more definitions to memorize for people to communicate. A properly factored vocabulary let people learn and cover all concepts faster.
Shortsightedness
A definition is bad when it it requires more words in the vocabulary as the scope of consideration expands. Black: To understand this concept, consider two sets of vocabulary, Set A and Set B, that can both cover the concepts in discussion topic X. When the discussion topic expands or changes to Y, if Set A can still cover all the concepts but Set B does not, Set B can be said to be shortsighted compared to Set A.
Q: Effect of definitions on a society
True or false: Everything else being equal, a society where the people are aware and acknowledges shortcomings in the law are more likely to have better laws.
Acknowledging
A society that acknowledges its shortcomings is more likely to value those who investigate improvements in the law. This leads to more improvements and better laws.
Not Acknowledging
A society that does not acknowledge its shortcomings is more likely to downplay complaints in the law and discourage those who try to investigate improvement. This leads to slower improvements or repeated creation of bad or worse laws.
This continues an offline discussion of the definition of loophole.
Black: True or false: Everything else being equal, a society where the people are aware and acknowledge shortcomings in the law are more likely to have better laws.
44: Of course๐ก44: Our original discussion was not whether we want to have better laws though, it;s about the definition of loophole, we can use this loophole definition: an ambiguity or inadequacy in the law or a set of rules.
Black: The two topics are closely related because you can evaluate a definition based on how it is used and its effect on whether it helps people become aware of shortcomings of the law. Do you agree that, everything else being equal a definition of "loophole" that downplays the shortcomings of the law is worse than a definition that is consistent and objective, so that different people can use the same definition and judge whether a piece of law has or does not have a loophole?Tanya: Before discussing what a loophole "is", we need a basic understanding/agreement that not all definitions are the same quality. It is better to agree on what makes a definition GOOD before discussing the actual definition to avoid anchor bias.Black: A loophole is a type of vulnerability in the law that a person can exploit to openly circumvent the intent of the law without legal repercussion even if the cheater does not lie about their exploit. (This is different from a piece of law that is vulnerable to frauds, where the fraudster is held liable if their deceptive act is caught.)Ledia: If you use that definition, you can easily "eliminate" all loopholes by having a law that said it is illegal to knowingly act against the intention of the law even if the actions to circumvent the law are legal otherwise.Tanya: That is a foundation of Arcacian law. 44: We can name our definitions differently and even name separately my interpretation of your definition. Wouldn't that solve the issue? I don't understand why there would be "better" definition.Black: 1. "I don't understand why there would be better definition": Take the lost ID bypass for example. Which of our definition is easier to tell whether the protocol has a loophole?StarTree: The example is that ID issuing center does not allow walk-in (you have to make an appointment) unless your ID is lost or stolen. In that case you may walk-in if you pay a fine.Black: Your definition mentioned "adequacy". Adequacy of what? Earlier in the discussion you said the sitaution is not a loophole if it is tolerable. This means that even if you know the intention of the protocol, you need to know how other citizens or legislators think about the law, the cost of enforcing the law, etc, before you can tell whether that is a loophole.Black: Do you agree that your definition requires MORE to tell whether something is a loophole, and the result depends on how many people you asked?Black: And, in your definition, what is the ** purpose** of knowing whether something is a loophole? Suppose you polled 100 people on whethere it is tolerable, how would knowing that affect what you or the society would do for the situation?โ๏ธBlack: A good definition can be used as a guide to solve a problem it defines.
Black: For example, my definition of loophole requires knkowing the intention of the law. Suppose the intention is that: Since the government requires everyone to have a valid ID, the cost of normal replacement is already in the budget (i.e. it is "free"). But the cost of replacing a lose ID is outside the budget. The designer decides that the person who needs the extra replacement is at fault, and shall pay a fine to deter unplanned stress on the system.Black: Analysis: [1] If the fine does not cover the actual extra cost, the fine should be increased.Black: [2] If the system can reasonably process the workload of those who would pay to get the ID the same day, then the "fine" should be an "express fee".Black: This means that a person doesn't need to lie about their card being lost. They could just pay for the express service.Black: [3] Suppose the system cannot process all express cases, then the fees should increase and be spent on upgrading the process to meet the demand.Black: As opposed to a policy of not increasing the fee, not upgrading the system, and just making peopl wait for a long time or restricting express processing to "people who really need it such as those who have their ID stolen". This type of thinking is called scarcity mindset. Such policy creates a reason for lying and does not adapt to the demand by increasing the supply.Black thanks all for the discussion.{"cmd":"next"}

๐ [B1] Reporting
๐Black: This part is about general reporting. It seems to have some overlap with A3.
Tanya: I think this is about routine reports, such as weekly report.Tanya: Coincidentally, we missed weekly report last week. I thought I have submitted but apparently it did not. I was able to submit it today, but not before we were notified that it was late.Evelyn: I hope that it was okay.Tanya: What can be done so that I don't miss it again?Black: How about having a second person confirm that the report is done?Tanya: @StarTree please add another CAL task to check for completion.StarTree: Done!Ledia: If B1 is about weekly report, then there are only 52 times a year. Missing once drops from rank SS (99% to rank S (98%). Ledia: Fail one more time it goes to Rank A (88%).Black: It seems that the evaluation of this topic is complete.Ledia: StarTree please add the number of Misses to the CAL tasks.

This is Magic Bakery Plays 221B Baker Street Case 2. The game content is probably rated teens to adult. โ ๏ธ
๐จ Case Start
Mikela: An inventor is found dead in his hotel room with a knife in his chest. The inventor's wife found her husband lying dead at the foot of the hotel room bureau. Among the items at the bureau were a newspaper, a large bedspring, and an open box of his favorite cigars. The windows and doors were still locked from the inside. Among the people quested are the hotel manager, hotel maid, hotel doorman, and two other inventor couples who are attending the same inventors' convention.
Sasha: The original rules of this game is pretty bad as a detective game. Last time we learned that among 14 possible clues, maybe only 3 or 4 are "good" clues. The other clues make the game too easy. If you get a puzzle clue, please try hard to make it make sense.StarTree: StarTree found something interesting!StarTree: The 2016 manual of the game has rules of cooperative play. The players discuss and decide which clue to review, and try to get the right answer with the fewest number of clues! The ranking is: Master Detective (1-5 clues), Sleuth (6-8 clues), Detective (9-11 clues), Gumshoe (12 clues), Scotland yard Inspector (13 clues), Watson (14 clues).Sasha: Wow nice find! Let's play it that way.Black: It is a classic closed room murder. Maybe we should check with the locksmith to confirm whether someone could have leave the room and make it appear that no one had left.P4: What is a bureau?Black: It is a desk where the top opens to reveal writing space.P4: ๐Casey: I think no one went in, The clues are pretty obvious that someone could have made a trap where a knife springs out when a drawer or something opens. They were inventors. It can't be that hard.Tanya: The cigar box. We are looking for someone who gave him the rigged cigar box.44: Should we go to the Tobacoonist to see who bought that box of cigar?Black: What do we need to know for this game?Mikela: 1) Who killed the inventor, 2) How he was killed, and 3) the Motive.Black: It looks like we have the method.
๐ [42] Hotel
44: 44 decided to check the crime scene at the hotel. The initial report seemed to be accurate. According to the witnesses, the inventor victim, Mr. Foster, was seen whispering with another inventor's wife, Mrs. Walton, at the hotel lobby the day before the murder.
44: It looks like Mr. Walton could be the killer. He is an inventor and could make the trapped cigar box. And his motive could be jealousy.Ledia: But all we know is that they were whispering. Is it too soon to conclude? What happens if we get it wrong?Sasha: I don't think we should promote guess too early. Let's use up the first five clues before deciding.Casey: We already narrowed down to inventors, but that is at least two suspects. If each spouse of an inventor is also an inventor then there are five suspects.Tanya: I would want to check the convention to see if we can learn more about the inventors.
๐ [62] Mesuem
Tanya: Tanya visited the convention center hoping to learn more about the inventors. In the middle of the display was an intricately designed clock. Tic. Toc. Tic Toc.
Tanya: I got a syllable clue for the motive. If you don't want to know it stop reading.Tanya: For the Motive: The second of four parts is the sound a clock makes.P4: Isn't jealousy three syllables?Ledia: Does this game give false clues like NCIS?StarTree: Based on the clues from Case 1, there are no misleading clues!Ledia: In that case I would stick with 44's story, even though I don't understand this clue.
๐ [52] Locksmith
Black: The murderer seemed to tried to hide that the cigar box was rigged. By a cursory glance, the cigar box appeard to be an ordinary empty cigar box. But closer examination shows signs where the spring was lodged to shoot the knife.
Black: This clue doesn't tell us anything we haven't guessed. I would agree that the door was indeed locked.
๐ [132] Tobacconist
Casey: Casey asks about who might know the victim's favorite brand of cigar. "All of his friends know that he smokes one every morning before doing anything else," said one of the victim's friends.
Casey: I guess this tells us it is not only his wife who knew the victim's routine.Sasha: Okay. Last clue before we decide.Tanya: We didn't find any clue that could contradict 44's guess. If we disregard the syllable clue.
๐ [72] Newspaper
Evelyn: Evelyn checks the newspaper. There seems to be nothing out of ordinary.
Evelyn: I'm sorry I got "no clue". ๐Ledia: It would be a clue if the date of the newspaper happen to be the same day of the murder. Because that would mean someone entered that morning with the newspaper.Sasha: It seems that we don't really have any contesting story, so let's drumroll.
๐ฅ [2] Apothecary
Ledia: The knife in the victim's chest was not thrust by human hands.
๐ฅ [12] Bank
StarTree: Bank records show that the victim Mr. Foster and Mr. Walton have worked together as partners on a number of inventions!
Tanya: We should have checked the bank. This tells us who his friends might be.
๐ฅ [22] Carriage Depot
Sasha: This is a syllable clue for the killer's name. Please skip if you don't want to see it.
Sasha: Killer clue, part 1 of 2 is "Up against the ___."
๐ฅ [32] Dock
Sasha: This is the second syllable clue for the killer's name.
Sasha: Killer clue: two of two: "2000 pounds."
๐ฅ [77] Park
Mikela: The absolutely true gossips have it that "The killer is a man!"
๐ฅ [92] Pawnbroker
Sasha: This is a syllable clue for the motive.
Sasha: Motive clue: Part 1 of 4: "Caesar was a _____." Part 4 of 4: "A large body of salt water."
๐ฅ [102] Playhouse
Mikela: In the night before the murder, the Foster couple and another inventor couple, the Southerington went to the playhouse!
Black: Two couples going to the play together is not suspicious compared to just Mrs. Walton whispering to the victim.
๐ฅ [112] Pub
Mikela: The absolutely true gossip has it that Mr. Foster and Mrs. Walton were having an affair!
Sasha: I feel like we should have chosen this. This is a strong clue and it would make sense that we could get it from the pub.
๐ฅ [122] Scotland Yard
Tanya: No clue.
๐๏ธ SOLUTION
Mikela: Mr. Walton learned of the affair and sought revenge out of romantic jealousy!
Mikela: Mr. Walton sneaked into Mr. Foster's room while he was at the play, and rigged a deviced to launch the knife when the cigar box opens!P4: So the knife didn't come from inside the cigar box?Sasha: For the scoring, I would say everyone gets a WIN, but 44 gets a challenge win because he got it from the first clue.Mikela: Congratulations!Sasha: We missed that the preacher was a thief! Anyone who got that should get a bonus win.Sasha: Still, everyone wins. Congratulations!
Sasha thanks the players!

This is Magic Bakery Plays 221B Baker Street Case 3! The game content is probably rated teens to adult. โ ๏ธ
๐จ Case Start: Silver Patch
Evelyn: The famous thoroughbred house Silver Patch and his trainer were found dead in the horse's stall. The horse had been poisoned. The trainer had been hit over the head and stabbed repeated with a sharp object.
Tanya: The horse Silver patch was named for the patch of silver hair on his mane. His owner is a horse breeder who owns four other horses.Sasha: The detectives have questioned the owner and his petite wife; the house chef; the chef's husband who is the house painter, and a rival horse breeder. The detectives are lloking for a stable boy who had left unhappy a month ago.Zoey: At the crime schene were some broken pieces of glass from the bottom of an ale bottle, and a pawnbroker's ticket.Sasha: We need to find who killed the horse and the trainer, the weapon used to kill the training, and the motive.Sasha: This board game has 200 cases. I hope that we get the hang of picking the right places. Our goal is to get the right answer within 5 clues.Ledia: The pawn ticket really stand out.
๐ [94] Pawnbroker
Ledia: "Interesting," Ledia said as she picked up the ticket. It belonged to the stable owner.
44: I think the owner killed his own horse for insurance fraud.Black: He probably killed the trainer because the trainer happened to see him poison the horse. The murder weapon is most likely the top half of the ale bottle.
๐ [14] Bank
Tanya: Tanya followed 44's hutch and checked the bank records. The owner indeed had a large insurance policy on Silver Patch.
Black: Do we have all parts?44: Why didn't the owner clean up the crime scene?Black: He did, didn't he? He hid the top of the broken bottle.Zoey: ๐คฃTanya: If he is working alone he wouldn't want to be seen by others. The house might have the wife, the chef, and the painter around.Ledia: Compelling.Sasha: Hold on. Are we done already?Evelyn: 44 is very good at this game.
๐ [4] Apothecary
Evelyn: To be thorough, Evelyn wanted to take a sample of the poison. "I think I found black paint at Silver Patch's stall," Evelyn said on the channel.
Evelyn: Is the poison paint?Zoey: Or is the murderer really the house painter? ๐คLedia: The painter has a wife...Tanya: But why kill the horse also? And the pawn ticket become unexplained.44: The horse that died was not Silver Patch. The owner killed another horse but kept Silver Patch so he could keep breeding it. He probably killed the trainer because the trainer could tell the dead horse was not Silver Patch.Zoey: OMGP4: Wouldn't you need silver paint to make Silver Patch?Tanya: I think dead horse originally had black mane, the owner used the black paint to paint over the real Silver Patch's mane.Ledia: The real Silver Patch is still in the stable with a black mane.

202306210858|๐ Scarcity vs Abundance{"cmd":"PIN2","node":"202306210858","music":""}Scarcity Mindset refers to the a consideration confined by perceived limitations, versus an Abundance Mindset that also considers practical ways to resolve the limitations.
Example: Party budget
Fact: You have $100 and you want to throw a party, but the ideal party you want to throw would cost $150.
Scarcity Mindset
"I only have $100, so I will plan for a party within the budget."
Abundance Mindset
"The party I really want would cost $150. I don't have to throw the party right now, so I will get more money to throw the party I really want."
In the abundance mindset, the person observes that there is more time and more opportunity to get more resources. This is different from a person with a scarcity mindset is stuck with the facts presented, but fail to see leeway when they are not explicitely presented for consider: 1) It is not a fact that the party must be thrown now. 2) It is not a fact that you can't earn more money. Scarcity mindset refers to such self-inflicted constraints (time is running out, there is no means to get more money) when a person approaches a problem.
Q: Does Abundance mindset assume unlimited resources?
Does abundance mindset mean we should assume unlimited resource or to create unlimited resource?
Tanya: The definition itself is descriptive. It describes the range of considerations. A person operating under an abundance mindset does not necessarily assume that resource is unlimited. They are simply not concluding (when it is not a fact) that resource is limited, or that they lack the ability to create unlimited resources. Abundance Mindset: If you don't know, you don't assume that you can't. Scarcity Mindset: If you don't know you assume that you can't.Ledia: In terms of "should you adopt an abundance mindset?", or "is an abundance mindset always better than a scarcity mindset?", I think the answer is yes. In the party example, if you happen to have $150, both mindsets will let you throw the party you want. But if have less than $150, using a scarcity mindset is the same as giving up too soon without considering ways where you could get what you want. What if the party you really want to throw is $1 trillion? Does an abundance mindset mean you would never throw a party untill you get $1 trillion? The answer would be no, because a person with an abundance mindset can also think, "I am not limited to only throwing one party, I can throw a cheaper party while I work my way toward the $1 trillion party. Abundance mindset does not restrict the person using it.

Does your philosophy charge people who are wealthy more for utility?
Arcacia: The helper gets credit for providing energy.
Ivy: Hold on. That answer is too vague. Do I get credit if I make energy for myself?Arcacia: When you help yourself you are already compensated so you don't get credits.Credits are for when you help someone else and the "loop" remains open.Ivy: I think we need a better term. Ledia: So what happens when someone can't afford energy and no one is giving them?Ivy: In Quest Society the basic model is that there is a resource bank. When its stockpile is low, there is a quest for people to refill. Those who refil will get a credit. As long as the stockpile is sufficiently filled, there is a free share for everyone. If the stockpile does not have enough, then the priority of each share is distributed by bidding. Sasha: What happens if someone tries to get more than their share?Ivy: If there aren't enough for everyone, you can't. If there are more than enough for everything, then it is settled by bidding with the credits.Ledia: I thought normally you can't store energy. On a grid the power plant just generate according to the demand.Ivy: I don't think the concept is any different.Ledia: There is a different in the order of events. For electricity, you get the power first, then the bill comes. In your model won't you need to bid everyday once you have ran out of you initial share? Or how often are you bidding?Ivy: You could book for your demand for the next month ahead of time. It would be simular to renewing a book you borrowed from a library. There might be a grace period for you to bid before your power is cut. I think there are enough existing ways to deal with this type of problem that this is not a question of if there would be a method similar to how things are done right now but is there an even better method if power can be paid by credits.Ledia: Convincing.Zoey started the node on utilities.

I'm not sure why "show all" has fewer hits this time. Let's study the promotion tips at the guild email account.
StarTree: There were 66 Google hits on "Arcacianism", and 39 hits when you choose "more results"!
๐ก Email Tips
Sasha: Apparently ever since there is a guild Youtube account, Youtube had been sending tips to the guild email account.
Sasha: That means we don't really need to look very far on how to promote the channel (which would promote Arcacianism). Sasha: So let's make a plan and study.StarTree: There are also tips from Google Search Console.Ledia: I though ChatGPT would have known all of that if we just ask ChatGPT?Sasha: That could be true. Let's first see one youtube tip from the emails.StarTree: The YouTube Creators emails are from 2019 and the links inside them are all dead!StarTree: The topics that they seemed to cover were: Branding, Copyright, Production Techniques, Filming on phone, Free Music and Sound Effects!LRRH: I think we can delete those all emails.StarTree: Roger!Evelyn: I have a question about copyright. Is it okay to upload someone else's song with our own image if we cite the source of the music?Ledia: ChatGPT says no.ChatGPT: If you want to use someone else's music on YouTube, you generally need to obtain the necessary licenses or permissions from the copyright owner. This usually involves reaching out to the artist, their record label, or a relevant licensing agency to secure the rights to use the music in your video.LRRH: @Evelyn, what were you trying to do?Evelyn: I was thinking if we could make youtube playlist per voice, it could help connect the voice to the character.LRRH: I think in that case we should make playlists of the originals instead of uploading our version of the music with custom image.Evelyn: It is not obvious if you just play all of them randomly.Ledia: If you don't want to re-up someone else's song, then maybe you can make your own player at the Blogspot webpage.Sasha: I want to talk about search promotion. @StarTree, what Google Search Console tips are there in the emails?Evelyn: I'm sorry for going off topic. ๐StarTree: StarTree found links: Account for all URLs to the website; Add users; Add sitemap, basics, guides, and forum!

This is a discussion in the monthly self-evaluation series where we aim to create a rubric for each evaluation topic.
๐ [B2] Teamwork
Black: This part is about general teamwork. Does our ranking scale for other qualities work in this case? If so, what is a fail in teamwork? Should we track only projects that require teamwork or all projects?
Ledia: I think we should track all projects because I don't think there isn't one that doesn't require teamwork. Since we are not the quest maker, we have to at least work with the quest maker "team". That requires teamwork.Tanya: I agree.Sasha: But wouldn't that be covered in Reporting? That was B1.Tanya: Not if you define B1 to be for routine/non-project related reports.Sasha: Should all section B qualities be non-project related?Black: Section B qualities are meant to be generally applicable, so it would make sense if they are not specific to any project.Ledia: But what do you do if you are not doing a project?Evelyn: There is troubleshooting.Ledia: True.Sasha: It would be quite difficult to track troubleshooting teamwork. Since there are so many.Evelyn: How do you "fail" at teamwork when troubleshooting?Ledia: Good question.Black: In the old days, if you don't intentionally make it quantitative, for the teamwork evaluation you could just cite incidents where good teamwork or bad teamwork made a difference.Evelyn: I think in general we have good teamwork because we cover each other to complete quests.Evelyn: Bad teamwork happens when you try to do everything by yourself and don't let others help.Tanya: I am not entirely ready to give up on a quantitative measure.Ledia: You could start with a qualitative description until you figure out a quantitative description.Black: Was it good teamwork on Monday when we called Hospitalian Knights for help? We got the new core but no one was questing, so we asked HK for help and they completed the quest.Evelyn: I think that was good teamworkTanya: I think it was good teamwork when we filled a gap in the quest and did extended exploring the week before. That was beyond expectation. We did some other team a favor.StarTree: The context is the Pisces Temple Quest!Black: So if we were to make a qualitative note, we could cite these two instances in the Pisces Temple quest.Black: And if we were to devise a metric for it we would have to consider what metric we should track from these examples.Tanya: These are instances where good teamwork would help and we took it. I am thinking if we also track the instances where bad teamwork led to issues, we could have a metric that is a ratio or a balance.Ledia: In the ranking scale, 50:50 would be a C. The rest can also follow. But...Ledia: If you don't go through each quest and consider whether there was good teamwork or bad teamwork, how are you sure that you don't have a bias in picking the incidents?Tanya: I am not against going through each project. But according to our examples, each quest could have more than one stance of good/bad teamwork. Some quests would have no teamwork relevance.Black: How about we add a CAL task to check for teamwork content in each quest and give a rating tag per instance? We could tag "TWG" for good teamwork and "TWB" for bad teamwork.Evelyn: Are we only counting "extraordinary" cases? I think that if we count ordinary teamwork, we do that everyday so the rating would be Rank S already. But if we do that, the extraordinary cases become lost in the statistics.Tanya: I would agree with not counting the routine cases.Ledia: And I would be okay with counting "routine" cases. I think if you just let each person mark when they believe they had exercised good (or bad) teamwork judgment, we could all learn from each other. So let's just declare the tag but let each person decide what they mark. Then we can get a personal rating.Ledia: Which I can use for profile stats.Sasha: I like that idea. Unlike reporting (B1) which was mostly done by Tanya, everyone should get some stats for teamwork.Ledia: I think if you do enough reports you should get a skill stats. That can happen when Cardinal Quest Log gets an XP type column and we fill it up.Black: So, do we agree on adding TWG and TWB tags? You may tag instances in retrospect. Tanya: Yes. @StarTree please tag the two instances for Pisces Temple quest.StarTree: StarTree tagged 12 instances for Pisces quest for exploring and handing off the map to Hospitalian Knights! Players who got the tag are: Tanya, StarTree, P4, Evelyn, Black, Arcacia, Ivy, Kisaragi, Sylvia, Evelyn, Arcacia, Vladanya!Ledia: Since there is not yet a TWB marking, that means everyone who gets a tag is Rank S...Evelyn: It makes more sense to me if I think of that tag as an XP type. For XP type, we have a way to translate XP to stars using squareroots.Ledia: We don't really have a way to translate between Rank and stars. What should an A be? three stars?Tanya: Three-stars takes 81 XP. Sasha: I think evaluation should be different from XP. For each period, a person's evaluation rating could drop. But XP would accumulate from one year to another.Ledia: True.Tanya: We still have the ratio method. But as Ledia said, as of now everyone with even just one TWG tag would be Rank S in teamwork. That rating seems too high. Tanya: I suggest we keep an eye on instances where TWB happens. I think once we start marking TWB, the determining reason can be standardized.Black: I think the remaining topics in section B have similar consideration, so let's continue and refine the method next time.Black thanks all for the ideas.
How does your philosophy deal with urban stray cats? Some places have a TNR policy where a finder of a stray cat may trap, neuter, and return the cat. What does your philosophy say about that practice?
Who pays for the surgery?
In some policies, the finder pays for the surgery. All else being equal, in a Quest Society the person who does TNR would be awarded credits if they are not otherwise reimbursed. Whether TNR violates any rights remains a topic to discuss.
Freedom Appitude refers to a community's understanding and practice in protecting freedom. It is not limited to what the law protects, but also includes what individuals decide to protect.
Government Subscription
When a government subscribes to a set of rights, such as freedom of speech and freedom of the press, the government is declaring non-retaliation against those who express dissenting opinions. The opinions could be directed to the government itself (e.g. a complaint about the government), or to another individual (complaint about the behavior of another citizen). In either cases, the government is making a promise that it will not retaliate. It will not make the individual unable to speak, or prevent itself from hearing the complaints if they are directed at the government.
Individual Subscription
When an individual subscribes to a set of rights, the individual is declaring non-retaliation in the same fashion that a government would. This is not the same as an individual agreeing to enjoy protection by a government, but that the individual agrees to the ideal and extend the protection to others as a government would. Freedom Apptitude of a citizenry measures individual subscription to freedom.
I was trying to clean up @Dungeon quests. One of them is the term "Useful Idiot".
Sasha: That is a political term that means someone who unwittingly help promote a bad policy.Sasha: Should we make a node about that? If so, what should we put in that node?
Tanya: Who added that to the quest list?Sasha: I did. But I forgot why I added it.Tanya: I think we don't need to define every single term. You could just delist that quest.Sasha: Okay.Sasha: Well, in that case, let me clear one more from a year ago. I put that we need a way to distingish non-RP guild goals and RP story goals for the dungeon.
Tanya: Is this about the Log Fall Dungeon node?Sasha: Yes.Tanya: I think that no longer applies because right now there is only the non-RP goal.. So it can be delisted.Sasha: No objection.Sasha: Well I am done with the ones I added.StarTree: @Dnugeon needs one more guild log quest cleared to reduce the backlog!Tanya: Let's start with the oldest.StarTree: Ledia added a link that said shy people are more observant!Tanya: Why is this in @Dungeon?Sasha: Shouldn't this be in @Mira?Ledia: Well, is that true? Do Shy people tend to have great observational skills, making them easier to recognize the core of a problem?Tanya: I don't think we should post that unless we can fact check.Ledia: Delist?Tanya: Delist.StarTree: @Dungeon had caught up!@Dungeon is now Rank C.Tanya thanks all for cleaning up.

Tanya: What about theives who don't just sell the stolen objects, but uses them to make something else before selling them?Ivy: What about theives who don't just sell the stolen objects, but uses them to make something else before selling them?Ivy: They would face the same problem when they try to declare the source of ingredients.
How would your philosophy react to property damage done by those without property?
Natalie: I think this is an Arena question. I plan to discuss before making a node.
Tanya: I think a node needs to be made about the same time so that the discussion can link to the node.Tanya: @StarTree please make node and link.StarTree: Done!Fina: In reciprocative justice, a person who dealt property damage is the same as having forced others to produce the property or forced others to perform the repair.Fina: Banning forced labor altogether is a preferential law. Tanya: If the offender offers to repair the damage, can they free themself from force labor?Fina: In reciprocative justice, you can't subject the offender to a worse situation that they subjected other unless there is no sign that they would stop. Fina: Even if you have resources to repair the damage, you don't get a right to deal damages. It is still a violation to someone's autonomy even if you can repair the damage. Others still have a claim on your autonomy. Tanya: So you mean even if they had repaid the damage, the victim still has a right to forced labor for the offense, but not for the damage that is already repaid.Fina: The amount of autonomy you could claim is small. For example, if someone stole your food then replenished it before you knew it, they had done no damage to your autonomy. But if they stole your car such that you lost 1 day dealing with it, then they owe you at least 1 day of autonomy.Tanya: Neither would lead to a prison sentence, such as a year.Sasha: You totally could get a year sentence. If you stole something and don't turn yourself in, then people are taking time to investigate to catch you, then put you on trial. It only takes 36 people spending 10 hours each to result in a one-year sentence. And you have to count the time people spend keeping you in prison.Tanya: is that true?Fina: That's correct. Status Quo law doesn't properly account for that difference between someone who turns themself in and someone who does not. This difference is not up to a judge to decide. It is accounted from an expense record.Natalie thanks all for playing.
Let's keep writing our stories!
Ledia: Should I keep going or should someone else go?Helen: It would be nice to do both.
๐ Ledia's Story: Mira Mira needs a plan
Ledia: At downtown Panarcadia, there is an old boutique called Mira Mira Magic Makeover. It used to be the place for new adventurers to outfit themselves, but ever since the original owner retired, the store had been mostly closed.
Ledia: The reason being the new owner Ledia is spending a lot more time questing than getting the store ready.
Ledia: StarTree, what quests are there for Mira Mira today?
StarTree: Mira Mira has 61 quests!
Ledia: StarTree, what do you think I need to do to make Mira Mira up and running?
๐StarTree: This question is too complicated for StarTree! But previous plan included making the store front pretty, showing interesting designs, and making promotion materials about the store!
Ledia: I do need to sort the space to show designs for inspirations.
Evelyn: Evelyn has come to Mira Mira and hopes to help make it a lovely place.
๐กEvelyn: If I imagine myself as a new adventurer, I would need someone to guide me on the possibilities, so being able to see different complete designs at once would be important.
Ledia: That would be the showcase area.
๐กEvelyn: And after that I would want to see samples or inspirations of individual items. Maybe a section for each type of gear and a section for designs.
Ledia: Non-RP: So, in terms of the node, the Showcase section should be near the top and not hidden. After that there can be a collapsed section on each inspiration type.Evelyn: Yes. I think the advertisement poster should come after we have enough on the node.Ledia: Ledia moves the plans and notes about what to do for Mira Mira toward the end of the store.
Evelyn: I don't understand the preparation room section. What is that for?Ledia: I was showing the differences in outlines. I think we need to pick a style so that the drawings can be consistent.Evelyn: I think they are too big and hard to see... Okay I think the first one looks the best: Black outline with overlay.Evelyn: Evelyn sees the four pictures of herself in the back and thinks that the first one looks the best.
Sasha: In terms of what looks the best I still think that Evelyn's profile and avatar look the best.Ledia: That one has black outline with no overlay. It uses flat coloring.Sasha: I was mainly talking about what she looks like, not the coloring. I meant the shape of her eyes, her hair, her expression. This is closer to who she is.Evelyn: Could we put my picture in a drawer? I feel embarrassed to have them line up like this in the back. ๐
Ledia: @StarTree please help.โญStarTree: Roger!
Sasha: I think you need a slice of life cover picture for the store and the chapter. A picture worthy as the title page. Then you can use that to replace the stock photo on the card.Ledia: That's a good idea. @3B?3B: Are you still talking about a manga sized title page? For a slice of life image there needs to be a background. It would be more cozy if it is in the interior. Is the interior of Mira Mira decided?Ledia: I imagine it to be more like a workshop with tools and mirror, and a changing area. The backroom will have more materials. The front will have costumes that are being made and designed. There would be some already made sets that you could just get, but the store is supposed to be old, so it is small, not like a department store. Designs and samples would be in the form of catalogs.3B: By catalog do you mean a book or a touch screen mirror where you could just browse on the mirror and try it on magically instantly?Ledia: That would make sense if you can draw it.3B: Are there windows in the front other than the store front?Ledia: Let's say it has a small store front and is in the middle of a block. So no side windows. Sasha: Isn't that too small. I imagine it would be bigger.Ledia: If it is small then I can explain why I could just have it closed and go questing. Casey: If Mira Mira is not its own building, I can't draw it until we know what else are in the block.Ledia: I would imagine that the block is about three stories tall and has a mix of residents and different small stores. Maybe a cafe, an item store, book store, etc. 3B: Does Mira Mira itself has a second floor, or stairs to a second floor. Ledia: Yes, I think that would make total sense if that is my room and has my personal projects.3B: For the slice of life scene, who should be in the picture?Ledia: How about myself, Evelyn, and StarTree. 3B: I don't know if it would fit but I should I try to include Sasha as a client or model?Ledia: Yes if that makes sense.Sasha: I think other than the detectives office Mira Mira would be the place I would go. As opposed to adventurer's hall or magic bakery.Ledia: Do you want to be part of Mira Mira? You look like someone who would be good at bringing in clients.Sasha: I don't want the responsibility. But if I find someone who needs style up I would bring them to you.Ledia: Honorary member.Evelyn: I wonder what my role is as a member. ๐ Ledia: You come to get things rolling so we can go questing.Zoey: Do you mean like in RPG where you need to go get material so you can craft the gear?Ledia: There is that.Sasha: I think if I want something made I would bring my own material. Sasha is strong and can solo a thing or two.Ledia: I think Evelyn is good at keeping things tidy and welcoming. She is probably good at letting people figure out what role they really want to be.Sasha: I agree with the first part, but the second part doesn't sound very convincing when she just asked what she was supposed to do.Evelyn: Sorry, I know what I am doing now. ๐Casey: I thought it was obvious what Evelyn was doing. If you plan to quest and your party member is still working at a store, wouldn't you just go help them at the store instead of waiting by yourself? So she is just doing whatever it needs to turn the next page.Evelyn: That is part of it, but I think I do like the store and its purpose. I don't think I am here just so that I can be elsewhere earlier. ๐ Evelyn: It helped clear things up that I am not the one doing the crafting.Evelyn: Not that I mind doing what I can as needed.Ledia: Mira Mira is demand driven, so when there is no client we just go and do other quests. It is not like we need to get clients in order to keep the store.Sasha: I disagree. Your location is in downtown, isn't that supposed to be quite contested? Don't you need to get enough honor or quest points just to stay there?Ledia: That's if there is competition. If no one wants to takeover that spot then you just keep it.Sasha: That seems like a good conflict to explore. That someone else more successful or ambitious wanting to takeover that space.Ledia: My point being someone who is more ambitious would not be eyeing this old and cozy store that is historically and still is Mira Mira. They won't be spending honor just to take it over. If anything they would want to continue it as Mira Mira, which is already what we are doing, so they would just join us.Sasha: Hmm...Casey: I think Ledia has it about right.3B: It will take me some time to draft the scene... so.... for that part please wait.Ledia thanks all for continuing this storyline.
๐จ 3B's Draft
3B: What do you think about this draft for Mira Mira's title page? {"cmd":"url","url":"https://github.com/MagicBakery/Images/blob/main/CH29_00_DF_20230708_1939.png?raw=true","desc":"[link]"}Zoey: 3B is god! XDSasha: This Evelyn has the right eyes. Good composition.Evelyn: Everyone has good expression.Ledia: You can't really see the background.3B: Shelves on the left and stairs on the right. You should be able to see them after I do the line drawing.3B: No changes?Ledia: I want to be wearing my maid outfit.3B: No armor at all?Ledia: Maybe you can keep the shoulder piece.3B: What I wanted to draw was you in half armor. I think if everyone wears cloths it would look too much like a normal boutique instead of one in a fantasy world.Ledia: Maid armor then. 3B: In either case I need to know what that looks like.Ledia: I will make a new sketch.

๐จ Case 4: The Chameleon's Vengeance
Sasha: This case is about a master of disguise Chameleon trying to kill Holmes after escaping from prison. We played this in the weekends and it was good. But I don't feel like typing it up because we have already played it.Zoey: If we are not playing it here, what is this post for? XDSasha: Well, what do people think, should we "play" it again?Evelyn: I haven't played it.Sasha: Would you like to read the prompt?Evelyn: Word for word?Sasha: Not necessarily, but that could be the quickest.โญEvelyn: The Chameleon is a master of disguise who has escaped prison. He has a plot of revenge on Sherlock Holmes for capturing him a year ago. As Holmes recounts what happened today he must figure out a) what surprise the Chameleon had planned, b) Where the surprise was hidden, and c) unmask the Chameleon.
Evelyn: The day began with a visiting childhood friend from Switzerland. The friend brought Holmes a fine Swiss pocket watch as a present.
Evelyn: The friend, Watson, and Holmes leave for the Playhouse, where the Playhouse Director had asked Holmes to perform a violin duet with a Virtuoso, who was the featured performer of the night.
Evelyn : When the friend, Watson, and Holmes were waiting for their carriage, Inspector Lestrade rushed up and broke the news that the Chameleon has escaped. Watson told Holmes that it is too dangerous to go to the concept, but Holmes insisted.
Evelyn: They arrived at the playhouse where a wealthy Artist presented a potted geranium to Holmes. Then the Carriage driver told the party that he will return to pick them up after the performance.
Evelyn: At the playhouse, Watson returned from the restroom with acute laryngitis. He blamed it on his nervousness concerning the Chameleon.
Evelyn: Then the Playhouse Director came to greet Holmes' party to show them their balcony seats. Homles notices that the Directory is extraordinarily pale.
Evelyn: That was all the starting clues. The game is afoot!Black: Anyone wants to challenge getting the answer with zero additional clue?Evelyn: I like how no one dies in this case.Zoey: Do we get points off if we guess wrong now?Sasha: I would say yes, since I don't want to end up training people to just make blind guesses. You are supposed to think like a detective.Tanya: It is not clear when the Chameleon escape. I think in this case Scotland Yard might have a relevant clue--Some characteristic about the Chameleon that Holmes and Lestrade already know but we as players do not.
ERROR
Zoey: I think maybe the person who presented the flowers is Chameleon. Maybe Dr. Watson got sick from it.Evelyn: The prompt said the surprise is deadly. The Chameleon was trying to kill Holmes, not just make him sick.Zoey: The potted flower could be poison, but somehow Dr. Watson got it instead of Holmes. In the restroom Watson treated himself enough that he is not dying.Tanya: In the way I read the prompt I think the surprise has not happened yet. According to the plot so far, things not yet done include arriving at the balcony seat, performing on stage, and getting onto the carriage after the performance.Tanya: The Chameleon could have rigged the balcony; rigged Holme's violin; or rigged the return carriage.Tanya: Two of them are related to the Playhouse, it would make sense of the Playhouse clue is relevant.Sasha: I think in general we shouldn't try too hard getting the answer with no clue. If we just hold for people to guess with no clue the game would take too long.
๐ [127] Scotland Yard
Tanya: Tanya reviewed the Chameleon's profile and tells the team, The Chameleon expects to see Holmes high-strung. He doesn't want to just kill Holmes. He wants to see him nervous.
Ledia: I think that clue would rule out the cab driver who presummably won't get to see Holmes for most of the night.Zoey: I think that would also rule out Watson because it doesn't help when Watson is more nervous than Holmes. Tanya: Then we are left with the Friend, the Violinist, the Director, the Inspector, and the Artist.Black: I think it is not the Violinist because I think a master of disguise might be able to micmic appearance and manner but not their violin skills. And there would be too many people notice the violinist at the playhouse.Tanya: But disguising as the violinist would probably let him go anywhere in the playhouse.Black: To do that it would be easier to just be the Director.
๐ [107] Playhouse
Black: Black checked around the playhouse and found...
Black: A syllable clue for the hiding place.Black: Four parts. Part 1: "To compete with." Part 4: After J's come ___."Black: The last part is case (K's). Violin Case would first if the first party is "Rival".Ledia: Quite conclusive.Tanya: I think the prompt meant that the Chameleon only disguised as one person. If the hiding place is the violin case then I think we can rule out the Artist because the Artist can't easily enter backstage to rig the violins. The Friend could have rigged the case but I think it would be hard to disguise as Holme's childhood friend.Evelyn: Then we only have the Director and Inspector left.Ledia: A disguise as the Inspector could be how the Chameleon got out in the first place.Zoey: It would be the most convenient to be the Inspector. Everyone knows Holme's address. The Chameleon went to 221B first, then learned that Holmes will perform at the Playhouse because Dr. Watson told Holmes not to go.Zoey: AA XDZoey: Now we need to know what the deadly surprise is in the violin case. It blows up, doesn't it? XD
๐ [57] Locksmith
44: 44 was about to check Holmes's violin case when Zoey mentioned that it might blow up.
44: I got the middle parts of the syllable clue of the hiding place. Part 2: "The alphabet letter before P." Part 3: Nickname for Linda.Sasha: Two more clues for Master Detective.
๐ [7] Apothecary
Evelyn: Evelyn casts Protect.
Evelyn: I thought bombs might be related to the drug store because they both have chemicals but I got a No Clue. ๐
๐ [137] Tobacconist
Casey: The situation calls for the defusing specialist Casey. If the Inspector is the Chameleon, where is the Inspector? I heard that the Chameleon escaped the Inspector while being transferred to a new prison.
Casey: There was a mix up of the clues. The actual clue for [137] is what Tanya reviewed. So now I am revealing Tanya's clue [127].Tanya: I see.Zoey: We didn't confirm that it is a bomb! XDSasha: Well, it is time for drumroll unless anyone has another idea!Black: Who thinks that it is not a bomb?Evelyn: It could be poison gas. But I think bomb is still more probable.Sasha: Drumroll!

Tanya: Syllable clue for the Chameleon:
Tanya: Part 2 of 2: Past tense of the verb tread.Zoey: It seems that the places with no apparent relation is more useful. XDTanya: Syllable clues are bad for RP though.Black: No it is not bad for RP. It is just harder. For example, this clue at the dock tells us that the Chameleon disguised as Lestrade. Then where is the real Lestrade? We found some clue at the dock.Zoey: But this is just half of Lestrade at the dock. ๐คEvelyn: Maybe we found his pants at the dock.Ledia: I think the Chameleon is wearing Lestrade's uniform.Evelyn: Then we found some of Chameleon's prisoner clothing at the dock.Tanya: I see. Good RP.

Sasha: We will enter drumroll after revealing 5 clues. If you want to get a WIN credit you must join before the drumroll section.
๐จ Case 5: The Coded Message
Sasha: Magic Detectives are called to a pawnbroker shop where the owner had died of a heart attack. There is no sign of a murder, but the envelope on the owner's desk contained a coded message. The message is addressed to the owner's old friend, who will be released from prison in two weeks.
Sasha: We are tasked to crack this code: "YQXFJUJMZJZFDXFSFH". The following has more details about the scene and situation.
Sasha: The following "clues" are part of the initial description. So I will use the โญ instead of the ๐.
โญ Persons
Sasha:The Landlady heard the hungry canary in the pawnshop for a week. When she entered the room she found the body of the pawn shop owner.
Sasha:The Pawnshop Owner was revealed to be a wanted petty thief in a number of burglaries. He laid low a few years ago after double-crossing a band of fellow thieves involved in a London Museum jewel heist. Along with his disappearance were the two most valuable items of the heist: the famous matching Eyes of Lucifer pearls.
Sasha:The Owner's Friend is currenting in a prison in Switzerland.
โญ Scene
Sasha: The body of the owner lies over his Edwardian style desk. In the same room are pawned items including a riding saddle, a cobbler's bench, a complete set of Old English armour, a handmade wooden battleship, an old hand-carved Hotel sign, a collection of Dutch pottery, and also musical instruments, clocks and watches.
Black: About this case: 44 and I played it and discovered that the coded message can be decoded without revealing any further clue. So we challenged Amelia to do so and she got it.Black: Each clue would practically tell you the whole message.Sasha: Hold on. Let me think.Sasha: Since you have played the case, could you make the message harder to decode so that we need the clues?Black: Yes, but I can't gaurantee that the choices of clues would make sense, and whether it is still possible to solve with just 5 clues.Sasha: Let's do that anyway and see what happens.Black: New coded message: "YQXFJUJMZJZFDXFSFH"Sasha: I updated the message in the first section to this. 44: Did you change the actual message?Black: Yes, but now I would have to be the clue giver.44: If you didn't change the purpose of the message, I would still guess from the context that the message is about where the Eyes of Lucifer are hidden, and presummably in the pawnshop.Sasha: The game is afoot!Zoey: Is the coded message still crackable without any clue?Black: Yes. Although I could make it even harder.Sasha: I would say let's just play and see what clues we get, otherwise there would be no story to RP.Tanya: If the message is a random substitution, normally the most frequent alphabet is the E.Zoey: F occured 4 times, if that is E, then ---E-------E--E-E-. Zoey: It doesn't seem to match anything directly so I will just get a clue. XD
๐ [196] Pawnbroker
Zoey: The pearls are definitely in the pawnshop. Zoey casts elemental trace.
Black: Zoey casts elemental trace but gets a very colorful response at the pawnshop. Her guts tell her that message most likely tells where the lost pearls are. But now she is not so sure if they are actually in the room, or if they are, what element she should be tracing.Black: The actual clue from the book just confirms that the message is about where the Eyes of Lucifer are hidden.Zoey: I was debating whether I should start at the Museum because the Pawnshop is too obvious. XDZoey: And I got a clue that is too obvious. XDZoey: Could someone get the Museum clue? XD
๐ [171] Museum
Tanya: Tanya checks the museum record of the Eyes of Lucifer.
Black: From the records, Tanya sees that the Eyes of Lucifer glows red and its elemental signature is Fire. They are such a rare and distinct treasure that they would not be mistaken as anything else if left in plain sight. Tanya understands that it would be difficult for the pawnshop owner to find a buyer even if he wanted to sell them illegally to a collector.Black: The clue from the book is that the Eyes of Lucifers were too hot for the owner to unload. He still had them when he died.Ledia: This is good RP.Black: ๐Sasha: But I thought you said every clue would tell us where the pearls are hidden.Black: Maybe my memory is faulty. You happened to pick the clue that I wasn't thinking about.
๐ [156] Dock
Casey: If it were me I would hide them in the battleship. Casey opens the handmade battleship and check its canons and ammo racks.
Black: Casey checked the model ship closely and with so much awe and excitement, missing Zoey's message that there is no fire elemental signature from that battleship.Black: With magnifer in hand, Casey checked the paper of the coded message, and found three faint marks between the 6th and 7th, 9th and 10th, and 12th and 13th letters.Black: The clue from the book was that the message had three words. But this message is not necessarily the same.Casey: So you mean this message has four words?Tanya: YQXFJU,JMZ,JZF,DXFSFHSasha: Two clues left.Tanya: Saddle, Armour, and Clocks have six letters, each with a repeated letter. but they don't match those patterns. Maybe the letters in each section is scrambled.Tanya: Pearls also has six letters with no repeat. Maybe the first six letter word is pearls and the last six letter word is the location.Tanya: Of those three words, only Armour has repeated letters that is also in Pearls. If F is r, then the only remaining shared letter between the first word and the last word is X being a. YQarJU,JMZ,JZr,DarSrH. J is p,e,l or s. The middle two words can only have vowels i or e.
๐ [186] Scotland Yard
Ledia: Ledia asks Zoey to check the element signature of the armour.
Black: Zoey says that the armor has no fire signature.Black: The clue from the book is no clue.Tanya: The last word is not armour. It is canary. The message is not scrambled it is backward.Tanya: YQXFJU,JMZ,JZF,DXFSFH = slraep,eMZ,eZa,yranac. Most likely "canary ate the pearls."Black : With that realization, Tanya looks around for the canary, but there is no canary in the room.Tanya: The canary is dead. It had been a week since it last ate. Who took the canary?Sasha: Last clue!
๐ [201] Pub
Evelyn: Evelyn goes to the pub to look for the canary.
Black: The canary is not at the pub.Black: May I ask why you look in the pub?Evelyn: I just thought I could see Sylvia. I'm sorry. ๐Zoey: What reason is that? XDEvelyn: It said the canary was hungry, so I thought someone would bring it to a place where it would be fed. The pub has food.Evelyn: And I hope that Sylvia could get some detective XP. before drumroll. ๐ LRRH: @Sylvia?LRRH: Is the game done though? Is the message cracked?Tanya: We don't know if that is the answer. It could still be wrong.Sasha: Black, how are you going to determine where the canary is? Black: I was thinking if you get one of the clues that would reveal the message. It just happens that you haven't gotten them.Black: The clue for this location in the book is that the message is written backward.Sylvia: Evelyn remembered clearly that she brought the canary, alive, to Sylvia to be cared for, but neither the canary nor Sylvia is at the pub. The bartender said that they left in a hurry suddenly.
Zoey: OMG! XDEvelyn: I don't think Sylvia would steal the pearls. ๐ Zoey: Sylvia the Phantom Thief rebooted XDSasha: It is drumroll time!
๐ฅ [206] Tobacconist
Zoey: Zoey starts elemental trace to track Sylvia and Eyes of Lucifer. Both of them have fire signature.
Black: Zoey follows the trace, there is no sign that Sylvia was hidding her tracks.Black: This clue reveals the letter for r: YQXFJU,JMZ,JZF,DXFSFH = --r---,---,---,-r----.
๐ฅ [151] Carriage Depot
LRRH: Little Red Riding Hood follows the chase.
Black: At the carriage depot, the trace splits up into two.Black: This clue reveals two letters. YQXFJU,JMZ,JZF,DXFSFH = ---a--,---,---,y-a-a-.
๐ฅ [161] Hotel
Evelyn: Evelyn calls Sylvia.
Sylvia: Sylvia replies that the canary had gotten away and she lost it at the station. Black: This clue reveals one letter. YQXFJU,JMZ,JZF,DXFSFH = -l----,---,---,------.
๐ฅ [181] Park
Ledia: Ledia decides to check the park, thinking that the canary probably flew to somewhere less crowded.
Black: The canary sees Ledia and flies away.Black: This clue reveals one letter. YQXFJU,JMZ,JZF,DXFSFH = s-----,---,---,------.
๐ฅ [141] Apothecary
Evelyn: Evelyn joins Sylvia for the search.
Black: At the apothecary they both see the canary. The canary is flying high. Its belly seems to have an amber glow.Black: This clue reveals two letters. YQXFJU,JMZ,JZF,DXFSFH = ------,--t,-t-,-----c.
๐ฅ [176] Newpaper Shop
Tanya: Tanya calls for P4.
Black: P4 flies considerably slower than the canary. It doesn't seem that she can catch the canary in midair.Black: This clue reveals one letter. YQXFJU,JMZ,JZF,DXFSFH = ------,-h-,---,------.
๐ฅ [166] Locksmith
P4: P4 uses ninja tools.
Black: And what would that be?P4: ๐ฎBlack: The canary is so small that P4's tools would more than KO it.Black: This clue reveals one letter. YQXFJU,JMZ,JZF,DXFSFH = ------,---,---,---n--.

๐๏ธ SOLUTION
Black: As the drumroll section had revealed, the message is "canary ate the pearls" written backward.
Black: In the original game, the coded message was just shifted by one letter and written backward. That made it easier to guess without any clue.Zoey: What's the odds that we just happened to get all the non-letter clues before drumroll? XDBlack: I know right. And...Black: How do you want to do this?Evelyn: I think we are supposed to return the pearls to the museum.Sylvia: May I use the steal skill to just take the pearls through the canary's body without waking it up?Sasha: @CardinalCardinal: Please roll three dice for skill level placement.Zoey: OMG we haven't rolled dice for so long! XDSylvia: โโโSylvia is recognized for the steal magic, Rank B.Cardinal: Sylvia succeed at stealing the pearls from the canary. But she couldn't help but noticed that her skill had gotten a little rusty.Sasha: Eyes of Lucifer. Sounds like pretty powerful artifact. Are we sure we should just give it back to the museum?Ledia: It might be powerful but it sounds a little evil. Maybe it should be kept out of reach.Zoey: Like the one ring.Evelyn: May I check if it is a cursed item?Cardinal: Please roll two dice for skill level placement.Evelyn: โโCardinal: Please roll a third die for skill level placement.Evelyn: โCardinal: Please roll a fourth die for skill level placement.Evelyn: ๐ Evelyn: โEvelyn is recognized for the skills Detect Curses Rank ACardinal: โโโโโโโCardinal: Evelyn recognizes that the Eyes of Lucifer is a Rank SSS cursed item. Those who try to use it will literally turn into a demon and destroy the world. The death of the pawnshop owner might not be of natural cause.Zoey: The Canary turned into a singing death note.Ledia: Then the Arx will seal them.The Eyes of Lucifer are now sealed at Arx.LRRH: Does anyone want the canary as a familiar?Evelyn: Does it like any of us?Cardinal: As the canary woke up, it seems to notice that the curse had been removed. It looks at Sylvia as if asking if she would forgive it for flying away.Tanya: It knew that it killed the previous owner and didn't want to kill Sylvia. So it flew away.Sylvia: Sylvia welcomes to canary back.Cardinal: The Canary flies to Sylvia and sings happily.Sylvia now has the canary as a familiar.Evelyn: Happy ending. ๐Sasha: Congratulations for solving this case and for the great RP!

In your philosophy, what should happen when someone knocks on your door asking for help?
๐ช Quest Society
In a quest society, there is a system to handle requests. So you could direct the person seeking up to a quest center or be the person who registers the quest for them.
This node lists topics related to roles of discussion participants and terms of related behavior.
Q: What is a Patronizing speech pattern?
A: A patronizing speech pattern is a pattern that attempts to establish an atmosphere of friendliness to mask deception or wrongdoing. It is a form of emotional or social bribery to distract the victim from the injustice that the user had caused.
Example: (Non-neutral response, deflecting blame)
Ann says something mean to Bob. Bob complains and Ann says:
a) "It's just a joke, we are friends, it is okay for friends to joke around, right?"
b) "Relax, my dear."
The following shows other types of responses for comparison.
Neutral response, non-patronizing and non-apologetic:
a) "I meant it as a joke."
b) "I call for a timeout."
Neutral response, non-patronizing, apologetic, but without admitting guilt:
a) "I'm sorry, I meant it as a joke."
b) "I'm sorry. I call for a timeout."
Non-neutral response, deflecting blame, non-patronizing, appear to apologize, without admitting guilt, condescending
a) "I'm sorry, I meant it as a joke. I shall be extra careful when talking to you."
b) "I'm sorry, I call for a timeout. Let me know when you are ready."
Q: What is the point of explaining what a patronizing response is?
A: The explanation is for awareness. People often adopt a speech pattern by familiarity or halo effect (they mimic the speech patterns they heard without considering its role in a given context where they use it).
A person who is never shown what different speech patterns mean would simply use them out of habit. Awareness and knowing the alternatives are among the first steps of escaping such patterns.
In general, in a constructive discussion, there is no intention to disqualify to prevent someone who uses patronizing patterns from participating. If every participants are aware of such patterns, they would already have no effect on the discussion. But when there is evidence that someone is not aware of what they are doing, then it is part of constructive discussion philosophy to increase awareness.
LRRH: There is a special quest to help look up information and sign up someone for a test. Anyone joining this quest?
Tanya: Was there a notice (with instructions) for the test?LRRH: Asking.Gaia: There is no notice. You just apply online.StarTree: StarTree found instruction at the website! And made an account.StarTree: StarTree started a log for the steps at the guild workzone directory.Zoey: Go StarTree go go! XDStarTree: Wee~~!StarTree: StarTree finished about 5 steps and needs further info!Gaia: I'll get the information tomorrow.

๐ฏEvelyn: Jan 11 is your name in morse code day. It is a little late but now I made a node. 202307151038|๐ปLedia: Fun.Zoey: XD
StarTree: Site search at Google can now see site:https://panarcana.blogspot.com/ !
Sasha: Okay. Then what's next?StarTree: But that only returns one hit. Doing the same for Wikipedia returns 10 billion hits!Sasha: Are there errors on Search Console?StarTree: The https domain at Search Console has a site map, but the non https domain does not. The site map is now added!StarTree: Now indexing is pending...!Sasha: Okay. Should we try playing a new game or continue with 221B?Zoey: XDSasha: It is Sunday.Evelyn: It is still early, so I think we should do more quests first.Sasha: But if it is early we can start longer games.LRRH: Or longer quest.
๐๏ธ Loophole
Black: A loophole in law is a situation where a bad behavior is legal. What do you call a situation where a good behavior is illegal?
Ledia: Draconian? Draconic?LRRH: @ChatGPT: If a loophole describes a situation where the law allows something bad to happen, what do you call the situation where the law disallows something good to happen?ChatGPT: The situation you are describing, where the law disallows something good to happen, is often referred to as a "restriction," "barrier," or "prohibition." It represents a scenario where a law or regulation limits or prevents a desirable outcome or action. This can occur when a law is overly strict or fails to account for certain beneficial possibilities or circumstances. In such cases, individuals or groups may advocate for legal reform or the removal of the restrictive provisions to enable the desired positive outcome.Black: I think I will pick the term BarrierLRRH: Loopholes were original arrow slits, the picture of the sieve isn't fitting. Black: But by now the term more closely resembles the holes of a sieve, since arrowslits are GOOD for a fortifications.Tanya: Are we sure that term was not borrowed because arrowslits were also weak points of a castle wall?Sasha: What do you call it when a neutral behavior is made illegal?Black: I think I will call that a restriction.Fina: Or a violation.Black: I think violation is too board and it covers both ways.
โ๏ธ What is good writing?
โญHelen: What is good writing? what kind of writing do you like to read?
Tanya: I prefer short and direct writing although I write longer than I need.Evelyn: I am okay with longer writing if it helps be understand the situation.Zoey: I like funny dialogues.Ledia: I like the suspense that comes with a DM. But not for every single move because if we have to roll for everything it would really slow down the game. Story. Sasha: So now are we ready to play / practice writing?StarTree: The Guild is -3 for catching up to the monthly pace!Sasha: The game itself would be +1 for @Vacation.StarTree: Sasha assigned each 221B game run to a different chapter: @Detective, then @Puzzle!Sasha: I'm pretty sure that that is fine.Tanya: Function as designed.LRRH: If you want the game would qualify for @Wish also.Sasha: I would take that.
๐ฒ Dice Roller
๐Casey: @Treasure has a quest to make a dice roller. Can someone do that?
Tanya: @StarTree.StarTree: Should it be its own node or part of the side bar?Tanya: Please first make it as a node.StarTree: Roger!StarTree: Adding RND_CoinFlip and RND_Reset.StarTree: In our games, when we "roll dice" we are doing a coin toss where the result can only be โ or โ. Is that what we need?Tanya: Please start with that first.StarTree:202307161350|Done!StarTree: The guild is now at -1!Sasha: The game is on!
A loophole in the law is a false positive where the law incorrectly allow a morally wrong behavior to be legal.
Loopholes are situations in the law where bad behavior is made or left being legal. Barriers are situations in the law where good behavior is made illegal. When the law and moral are completely aligned, there should be no loophole and no barrier in the law.
This is Magic Bakery Plays 221B Baker Street Case 6! The game content is probably rated teens to adult. โ ๏ธ
Sasha: We will enter drumroll after revealing 5 clues. If you want to get a WIN credit you must join before the drumroll section.
๐จ Case 6: The Murdered Banker
Sasha: The vice president and controller of a bank is found murdered in his bank office. Magic Detectives are called to find the killer, the weapon, and the motive.
Sasha: I think it is easier to break down the initial description into sections. last time I broke it down to persons and the scene. This time it seems the timeline is the most relevant. But first are the scene and persons.
โญ Crime Scene
Evelyn: The victim was found slumped over his desk atop a pile of scattered papers. He had been hit on the right side of the head with a blunt object.
Tanya: The lock on the victim's file cabinet was broken. It appeated that some papers had been removed from the files.
Black: It looks like we are looking for someone left-handed.
โญ Timeline
StarTree: Here is the timeline according to the statements:
9:30 AM: The Secretary left the office to pick up theater tickets at the Playhouse for the victim and his wife. The Secretary said that when she left the office, the victim was alone in his office.
9:30 AM: The victim's calendar shows that from 9:30am to 10:00am, he has a meeting with the vice president of commercial lending section.
9:50 AM: The VP of lending said he did meet with the victim, but when he left at 9:50am, the victim was in good health.
9:50 AM: The Treasurer, whose office is next to the victim, said he heard a noise from the victim's office as if he dropped a briefcase.
10:00 AM: Secretary returns and finds the body.
โญ Persons
Victim: Vice President and Controller of the bank. Married.
Secretary: Found the victim's body when she returned from the playhouse.
VP of Lending: Had a meeting with the victim. Disagreed strongly with the victim on many policies.
Treasurer: Heard noise from his own office next to the victim's.
Black: A theory: The VP of lending killed the victim because he went against the bank policy and gave some bad loans. So he wanted to steal evidence from the victim's cabinet.44: I agree that the person who opened the cabinet is trying to steal evidence, but the murderer could be a different person. The Treasurer could have heard the murder, then took the opportunity to steal from the cabinet when the victim is already dead.Tanya: But what is the murder weapon? The only object being described is the sound of a briefcase.Ledia: I don't think you can kill someone with a briefcase. Briefcases in 1900's were probably made of leather.Evelyn: I think the murderer is not the VP of lending because if he had already been disagreeing with the victim many times, what makes him want to kill the victim this time?Black: Maybe he ran out of patience and started acting against policies.Evelyn: Okay.Sasha: First clue. Where?Zoey: Getting a clue from the Bank will probably tell us something very obvious. But for the RP we can't really not get it.Tanya: So far we are doing quite well just following the rational path. Let's start at the Bank.
๐ [15] Bank
Zoey: Later that day, the victim is scheduled to give a report on the bank's profit.
Tanya: I think this clue quite safely rule out the wife or the secretary as murder suspects, since the motive should be about money. This is a bit of meta-graming since we know that most of the clues in the game matter.Zoey: I didn't get a chance to do something magical. XDTanya: We need a clue about the treasurer or the lender.
๐ [75] Newspaper Shop
Black: Black checked the news for financial clues and found that the Treasurer had been having a rather lavish life style for the past two years. It would appear that he had obtained an inheritance or another source of income.
Black: I think this points to the Treasurer being the one who stole evidence of his embezzlement. But as 44 said, he might not be the murderer.Tanya: Akram's Razor: The treasurer is also the murderer. He has the motive, and the opportunity (when the victim is alone, since the secretary is gone and no one else is scheduled to be there after VP of ledning left). VP of lending does not have a motive yet. It would be strange if he killed the victim during his scheduled meeting time.Ledia: Compelling.Sasha: Then, what is the murder weapon?44: If the Treasurer stole papers from the cabinet, why are the papers scattered on the desk?Tanya: The murder weapon is the paperweight. The murderer removed it from the crime scene.
๐ [35] Dock
LRRH: Having suspicion that the murderer was the Treasurer, LRRH asked Sirius to backtrace his tracks this morning. His scent ended at the ditch. "Are you telling me that Mr. Treasurer went to the ditch and back?" Little Red asks Sirius.
LRRH: My clue was a syllable clue for the killer. Part 2 of 2: The opposite of Woman. In the original game, the victim's name is Ostermann and the Treasurer's name is Bakman. So this clue is not conclusive. It could be the victim, the victim's wife, or the Treasurer.Tanya: But if our guess and RP is correct, the Treasurer dumped the paperweight into the ditch.Sasha: The game doesn't require us to find the weapon, but for RP we should find it, since without the murder weapon we don't really have evidence to connect the Treasurer to the victim's room during the crime.Ledia: Even if we find the paper that he stole from the cabinet, we don't have evidence for murder.Sasha: Two clues left to find a clue about the weapon. Should we challenge ourselves that if we can't find the weapon, the murderer doesn't get convicted?Ledia: We are not entirely sure that the weapon is a paperweight. It could have been a book. Or a statue.Black: The secretary should know if there was a paperweight.
๐ [105] Playhouse
Ledia: Ledia asked the Secretary if there was a paperweight, which she confirmed.
Ledia: The clue is a weapon syllable clue. Part 1 of 3: Crime doesn't _____.Ledia: I can't think of any word order than Pay, and I can't think of any weapon other than Paperweight.Sasha: Okay. I think I am okay with finding the paperweight in the drumroll section, which would be inevitable. So we will keep playing and see who gets the other two clues for the weapon.
๐ [95] Pawnbroker
Casey: Casey scans the ditch with a metal detector and finds the paperweight in the ditch, and sends it back to the lab.
Ivy: At the lab, Ivy lifted a fingerprint from the paperweight and asks the team to send in some fingerprints to match with.
Casey: This was a killer syllable clue. Part 1 of 2 is the opposite of front. That matches the VP of Lending and the Treasurer. So the killer is definitely the Treasurer.Zoey: I think as long as you find the paperweight we have magical evidence that the Treasurer did it. Sasha: Anymore changes? Drumroll?Tanya: We did not get any motive clue.Black: We did get a motive clue, just not a syllable motive clue.Zoey: I'm fine with having a little tension during drumroll. XDSasha: Okay then, Drumroll!
๐ฅ [5] Apothecary
Sasha: This is a motive syllable clue. Part 3 of 4: The alphabet letter after K.
๐ฅ [25] Carriage Depot
Sasha: This is a motive syllable clue. Part 4 of 4: The past tense of mean.
๐ฅ [45] Hotel
Sasha: This clue says that the Victim and the Secretary spend the night together at the Hotel sometimes.Ledia: I think this is evidence that the game does give misleading clues. We should remember this.Tanya: Noted.
๐ฅ [55] Locksmith
Sasha: This is a motive syllable clue. Part 1 of 4: The alphabet letter after L.
๐ฅ [65] Museum
Sasha: This is a motive syllable clue. Part 2 of 4: The sound a bee makes.
๐ฅ [80] Park
Sasha: This is a weapon syllable clue. Part 3 of 3: ___ til the sun shines, Nellie (song title)
๐ฅ [115] Pub
Sylvia: Both the Secretary and the VP of Lending are left-handed.
Zoey: Hold on. Didn't we say we are looking for a left-handed murderer?Tanya: But we already know from killer syllable clue that the killer is the Treasurer.44: It would make sense if the Treasurer was trying to frame the VP of Lending.
๐ฅ [125] Scotland Yard
Evelyn: The victim was hit on the head from behind.
Zoey: There. XD
๐ฅ [135] Tobacconist
Sasha: This is a weapon syllable clue. Part 2 of 3: The sound made by a contented cat.
๐๏ธ SOLUTION
Sasha: After further investigation and questioning the detectives were able to reveal the full story.
Sasha: For the past two years, the Treasurer had been embezzling money from the bank. The victim confronted the Treasurer about it, and said he would reveal the truth at the meeting later that day if the Treasurer doesn't do that himself. WIth that, the Treasurer decided to kill the victim, striking him from behind with the paperweight. He then stole the evidence from the cabinet, burnt the documents, and discarded the ash and the paperweight into the ditch.Ledia: If he burnt the documents, how did we get the evidence that he committed embezzlement?Sasha: Do we care? We got him for murder.Evelyn: I think there could be more than one copy of those documents.Zoey: In the Briefcase under his desk. XDLedia: I'd take that answer.Sasha: Congratulations to all for winning! Please return for the next case!
Sasha thanks the players!
โ๏ธ EXTRA
Sasha: As you may know, we have a lot more games than 221B Baker Street. 221B Baker Street has 200 cases. If we play just that it would take us at least two years to finish. Why don't we also try some other games? Or should I ask, who wants to try another game while we continue to play 221B Baker Street?
Tanya: That highly depends on what other games you want to try.Sasha: Among the latest games we got are Pathfinder, Diplomacy, Epic Seven, and Last Night on Earth.Evelyn: Are they all cooperative games?Sasha: Diplomacy is not.Black: Last Night On Earth is not good for playing online. It needs a board and many movements and dice rolling.Sasha: I think we can abstract or simplifying it for an RP version. We play as ourselves like a TTRPG. We don't need to use the board or roll for movement on the board. We can take all of those away.Sasha: We just care about the story and adventures we have together, in a zombie infested place.Black: But if you do that don't you need to practically design a new game?Sasha: Not really. We are not designing the quest or the items in the game. We just make it simpler.Ledia: That's pretty compelling. But. I think it will take too long compared to 221B.Sasha: We don't have to finish in one session.Zoey: We didn't finish the first chapter of Mice and Mystics. XDEvelyn: If we are going to start a new game, I would rather finish Mice and Mystics, because I want to know how the story ends.Ledia: I think by now we know everything in the item deck. We are not familiar with all the skills, but I suppose those details are what we need to abstract away.Ledia: If you just want to know how it ends you could just read the story book.Evelyn: If I do that there is no surprise when we continue. ๐ Sasha: How about we try to continue with a simplfied version of Mice and Mystics? I want to confirm that we can just play any game without necessarily following the game's rules, because we have our Magic Bakery rules.Evelyn: I am okay with that.Ledia: I am not in that game but I am curious how that works.Zoey: If that works we can burn through Sasha's collection. XDSasha: Yes, it is worth trying isn't it.Sasha: @Cardinal, is that doable?Cardinal: Yes it is doable. I will take the liberty to abstract the rules and dispense the story elements.Sasha: Let's call for a game and see how it goes.

This is Magic Bakery plays Mice & Mystics, chapter 1 tile 4: The Kitchen.
Sasha: This session follows Magic Bakery game rules instead of the official rules.
๐ฏ The Kitchen
Cardinal: The Hero mice answer the cries of Kitchen staff Maggie and rushed to a kitchen where Maggie is frantically defending the kitchen from roaches with her broom.
Sasha: Since this is an unplanned session, let's see who are here to play.Evelyn: I am playing Tilda, a cleric mouse.Casey: I was the blacksmith mouse.Sasha: That is Nez.Zoey: I want to play. XDSasha: Do you want to play Collin?Zoey: I will take anything. XDSasha: Then you are Prince Collin.Sasha: @P4?P4: P4 wants to play with Evelyn.Sasha: P4 can be Tilda when she attacks.P4: ๐Sylvia: May I play Filch the Rogue?Sasha: Perfect. Cardinal please go.Cardinal: The mice heroes see roaches on the floor and on the kitchen counter, as well as a broom coming their way, "MIIIICE!!!" screams Maggie.
Cardinal: Everyone rolls for defense. Collin and Filch with advantage.Zoey: Prince Collin: โโP4: Tilda: โSylvia: Filch: โโCasey: Nez: โCardinal: Collin and Nez barely deflect the broom, but the group was swept toward the wall away from the table.Cardinal: Heroes, what would you like to achieve in the kitchen?Sasha: The story is that the heroes are supposed to clear the roaches and get Maggie's attention.Evelyn: Do we actually look like mice? I though we are wearing armor and holding weapons.Cardinal: As the heroes wonder how they appear to Maggie, the roaches on the floor have closed in onto them. One group surrounding Collin and Tilda, the other around Nez and Filch.Zoey: No time to talk. XDZoey: Prince Collin uses his sword skill against the roaches. Evelyn: I forgot what skills Tilda has. ๐Sasha: I think at this point we don't really care. Just do what you think would make sense.Evelyn: It all happened so quickly, Tilda casts Protect for the whole group.Cardinal: Please describe the action for Nez and Filch also, They will be resolved at once.Casey: The sweep got Nez's blood pumping and he does his all around swing with his long hammer. Sylvia: At the first sign that Nez is going to make that move, Filch uses the momentum of Nez's swing to leap onto the table.Cardinal: Everyone rolls two dice please.Zoey: Collin: โโEvelyn: Tilda: โโCasey: Nez: โโSylvia: Filch: โโCardinal: Filch's acrobatic move surprised Nez and caused him to lose balance, where his hammer makes a second swing at the roaches. As he curses Filch while regaining balance, he realized that the roaches around him are all defeated.Cardinal: On the other hand, Prince Collin defeats one roach, while Tilda's protect connected just in time to block the remaining two attacking roaches on the floor.Cardinal: โโโโCardinal: Maggie takes a swing at the three mice on the floor. Roll two dice for defense.Zoey: Collin: โโEvelyn: Tilda: โโCasey: Nez: โโCardinal: The three mice are pushed against the wall. Evelyn's protect is just barely holding.
โ๏ธ Table and Floor
Cardinal: On the table, Filch sees two roaches eating the cheese. On the floor, Maggie trying to finish off the Collin, Tilda, and Nez along with two roaches.
Cardinal: Heroes, make your choices.Sylvia: Filch backstabs the two roaches, and hides under the table if succeed.Zoey: Collin will take on one roach and leave the other for Nez.Casey: Nez will carefully finish the remaining roach.Evelyn: Tilda casts divine seal, which by itself has a calming effect, and it is something that Maggie had seen Tilda do before. Tilda is trying to let Maggie know that they were turned into mice.Cardinal: Everyone rolls two dice please.Zoey: Collin: โโCasey: Nez: โโSylvia: Filch: โโEvelyn: Tilda: โโCardinal: Filch easily clears the roaches on the table top, but noticed that Nez missing his swing...Sylvia: I use blink to backstab that roach also.Cardinal: โโโโSylvia is recognized for the skills Backstab and Blink.Evelyn is recognized for the skill Divine Seal.
โ๏ธ Bewildered
Cardinal: Tilda's divine seal let Maggie see that the mice were clearing the roaches. Maggie holds the broom close to her and looks at the group in bewilderment. Tilda could sense that Maggie is under a spell that prevents her from seeing the hero mice the same way as the heroes see themselves.
Cardinal: Heroes, now you may choose to go back down the tunnel to escape the castle, or stay and get item or spell. If you choose to stay, there is a chance of another encounter.Evelyn: I think we should go back down and this is a good time to stop.Zoey: I agree with going back down but I want to do another tile. XDCasey: I don't mind going one more tile.Sylvia: I am okay with going another tile.Evelyn: Okay, let's go down.Tanya: Maggie is under a curse, said Maginos the Mystics from under the tunnel. Let's get out of the castle first. With that, the group returned to the tunnel.
Sasha: Oops. I forgot that there were actually five mice on scene.Zoey: XD
โ๏ธ Tunnel Spider
Cardinal: As the heroes descend to the kitchen tunnel, they notice a giant spider coming their way.
Sylvia: I hide and prepare for backstab.Evelyn: Do we still have to fight everything? This is just a spider. ๐ Zoey: You could try to cast sleep while I block it.Casey: I go into position to attack if sleep fails.Cardinal: Everyone rolls two dice please.Sylvia: Filch: โโEvelyn: Tilda: โโZoey: Collin: โโCasey: Nez: โโCardinal: Spider: โโโโCardinal: As Tilda casts Sleep, the Spider sprays poison at the group. Everyone but Filch receives one poison damage. In the chaos, Collin and Nez swung at the Spider, but it fended off their attacks. Filch is now in position to strike. Tilda sees that her Sleep spell has no effect on the Spider.Cardinal: Nez, Collin, and Tilda are at 2 HP. Filch is at 3 HP. Heroes please choose your next move.Evelyn: I cast remove poison.Zoey: Collin will defensively attack for Nez and Filch to make the kill.Casey: Nez will swing carefully for a big hit.Sylvia: Filch will make a hit as soon as the spider is focused on attacking Collin or Nez.Cardinal: Everyone rolls two dice please.Evelyn: Tilda: โโZoey: Collin: โโCasey: Nez: โโSylvia: Filch: โโCardinal: Spider: โโโโCardinal: The heroes are having a hard time finding an opening. While Tilda removes the poison on the group, the spider's long legs struck Nez. Nez is now down to 1 HP. The Spinder is still in full health.Casey: I place a trap and fall back.Evelyn: I heal Nez.Zoey: I lure the Spider toward the trap.Sylvia: Still waiting for the opportunity for a killing blow.Cardinal: Everyone rolls two dice please.Casey: Nez: โโEvelyn: Tilda: โโZoey: Collin: โโSylvia: Filch: โโCardinal: Spider: โโโโCardinal: The Spider hit Nez again preventing him form laying down a trap. Evelyn's healing is barely keeping Nez from a KO. Cardinal: As the heroes struggle with the Spider, they hear the sound of more creatures approaching from the tunnels.Zoey: Let's back toward the exit. Maybe we can just leave the spider alone, or have it fight the ones coming through the tunnel.Casey: I back off behind Collin.Evelyn: I cast group heal.Sylvia: I will take an opportunity to strike then go back to the front of the Spider for the escape.Cardinal: Everyone rolls two dice please.Evelyn: Tilda: โโZoey: Collin: โโSylvia: Filch: โโCasey: Nez: โโCardinal: Spider: โโโโCardinal: The Spider's defense is too high. The heroes could not land any solid hit. Filch takes a wound trying to make a hit as the Spider turned around and spit sticky webs. It seems that the Spider is more interested in trapping the incoming creatures than to pursue the hero mice.Evelyn is recognized for the skill Remove Poison.Cardinal: The hero mice continues to the next section of the tunnel, hoping for better luck.
Cardinal: Hero Status: Collin and Tilda: 3/3 HP, Nex 2/4 HP, Filch 2/3 HP.Sasha: Okay, I think that's all we have time for today. Is this doable? Too hard? Too easy?Evelyn: I think this pace is fine if we only do one tile.Zoey: I don't know what Collin can do. XDCasey: Do we basically have all skills?Cardinal: You have skills that make sense at this point of the story.Ledia: I like how the players decide their actions, then all the dice rolling is done at once.Zoey: But you can't see what succeeded before deciding what to do.Ledia: I think you can still describe conditions to some degree.Tanya: I think Evelyn could try to use charm on the spider. You could try to do that on creatures that can't fall asleep.Evelyn: I'll try.Sasha: There will be plenty of opportunities to upgrade the gameplay, so please let us know your ideas. See you next game!
Sasha thanks the players.

The agent model of governance sets the government as a collection of agents that do what the people and individuals are allowed to do. Public decisions and workflows are broken down into accessible subprocesses so that the citizens can perform them by themselves without creating authority figures.
Q: What is the opposite of an agent model of government? An agent as opposed to what?
A: As opposed to a top-down authoritarian style of governance where the government is the principal. An authoritarian style of governance has a monopoly on government processes and treats the people as agents to complete the government's goals.
Q: Does this mean anyone can run the license plates and everyone knows where everyone lives?
A: Yes if that is the law of the zone. A zone could have a law where that information is not collected. In a fully open zone, you could run license plates, and know where everyone lives just as they also may know where you live.
Q: What is the advantage of making everything DIY?
A: The main reason that the governance is fundamentally DIY is that it doesn't violate autonomy and it doesn't reward "deadweight" tasks.
Deadweight or inefficiency happens when a person who is motivated or efficient at a task is kept from doing it, while a person not as motivated or efficient is assigned to do the task instead.
In an agent model, the person who needs a public task completed may select any competent and available agent to perform the task. This means that when there are multiple choices, the requester may choose the more efficient one.
Q: Why would there be multiple choices of agents? Or how do you know if there will be more or fewer choices in this model?
A: In general monopoly reduces choices. Therefore when the government does not create an artificial monopoly (by contracting just one out of two companies to perform city service), the people can figure out which service provider they want (some selecting company A, some selecting company B). With that, there is no need for a city council to analyze and make a broad-stroke predictive decision. The choices could be compared and reviewed by the people as they choose the provider they want.
Q: Say the city only has space for one school. If you want to let people choose, don't you need two schools? how does that work?
A: In principle, the agent model will let the people choose as much as they can. If there can only be one school then the school could be treated as a public facility asset where different teachers or teaching associations borrow individual classrooms or time slots. The association gets more room or time slots depending on the number of students that choose them instead of the alternatives.
Q: How is the agent model different from privatization?
A: The gist of the issue is not whether a service provider is public or private, but whether the individuals needing the service have choices so that can choose the more efficient one, and whether the more efficient one gets more resources to expand its good practices to serve more.
The agent model opens the workflow so that the person who needs a public service done is allowed to complete it themselves. When a person cannot perform the task themself, the person may choose to spend the corresponding resources on any agent they appoint.
"Privatization" may include operation modes where the person in need is not allowed to perform the task themself, but *must* select a company to do it for them, or exist in a way that the service become unaffordable. When those modes are not happening, privatization can be considered an implementation of the agent model.
The agent model can be implemented as a public entity. A citizen going through an open public workflow is just a participating citizen of the public process. It is like performing self-checkout at the supermarket, the customer doesn't become an employee of the supermarket nor a self-employed person in the eye of the law just because they performed a self-checkout.
A government agency, even if it is a single agency, can practice or expand on the agent model letting people choose among different implementations or management, then assign resources according to the people's preferences.
For example, if a city council normally has five members, a step toward full agent model governance is to simply let the voters pick one candidate, and the council is composed of the top five candidates (Instead of dividing the city into districts and letting each district decide one member by majority rule. Such a method is a type of divide-and-conquer tactic that can be exploited to violate autonomy. In an agent model, a dispersed minority of 49% would still get 49% of consumable decision power, whereas, in a district election system, the 49% would get no decision power because they can lose to the majority in every district.)
Further steps closer to an agent model, is to let each voter endorse their representative and distribute decision power according to a representative's number of endorsements. When that happens, the representatives are no longer elected, they are selected directly by the people who support them. A person can switch their representative at will and the corresponding decision power goes to the new representative.
This is for GitHub migration topics. Let's talk about the layout.
๐ Column Workspace
Ivy: This is a suggestion from Sasha, that the new website would have columns, where the user could just add columns and display content on each one individually like viewing a few phones at once.
Ivy: And when the device is a phone (when the screen width is below a number), there will just be one a single column.Sasha: I got that idea from Tweet Deck.Tanya: I think sometimes we need wider columns. I think that is one of the reasons for the migration: that we could use the full width of the screen.Ivy: @StarTree please start a mockup so we could discuss details.StarTree: Should there be a top or bottom menu bar?Sasha: Eventhough the top bar is mostly useless I think we need it, otherwise the website would just look strange.Ledia: Where do you put the buttons? How do you configure what is displayed in a column?Tanya: And how do you add a column?Black: I would say let's start with the absolute necessary before trying something fancy.Black: I think what is necessary is to retain JQuery nodes so that a panel can display content.Ivy: We know how to do that already.Black: Then?Ivy: But if you start migrating the content, or start using the GitHub location, there will be duplicate content to maintain.Black: I think the HTML content for Archive1 and Archive2 can be exactly the same. What GitHub is missing is the corresponding code for Viewer at the GitHub index.html.Ivy: We are designing the layout for index.html. That is the new thing that we need to decide on.Black: I guess I am saying I would like to see a copy of the current layout so that we can migrate to GitHub, then we can upgrade the layout.Tanya: What is the point of migrating if it is exactly the same?Black: Then we literally can focus on one website as we upgrade it.Ledia: I lean toward just using the GitHub website as a sandbox to visualize new layout. It just feels safer when we know we can mess around with it without worrying that someone needs to post something.Ivy: That's my intention.Black: Understood.Ledia: In our current site, when you click on a link on the sidebar it opens the content in the main area. If you let the user make any number of column, do you mean each column has its own sidebar and main area?Ivy: The concept is that any column could be the sidebar. It is not decided what happens when you click on a link.Ivy: My idea is that when you click on a link, it would open on the closest column that is not a sidebar.Tanya: I am fine with it always create a new column with the content. The user can always close the extra columns.Sasha: I think it would be annoying if you need to close it.Black: How about you can add a lock on a column so that when you click on a link, the content goes to a column that is not locked?Tanya: I am fine with that.Vivi: How would this all work on a phone?Black: I think a sidebar can be locked by default on desktop, but unlocked by default on a phone. Each column can have a button to make itself a sidebar. On a phone, when the sidebar is locked, it loads content to an unlocked column or makes a column above itself.Ledia: Then it is very similar to what we have now.Ivy: @StarTree please make a mockup at GitHub.StarTree: Wee~~!

This node is for murder mystery games. They are from different publishers but I am grouping them here.
Sasha: These games are quite long in terms of the amount of reading. It might be a while before we try to play it here.

Does your philosophy uses licenses and certificates? How do they work?
Quest Society
In general when there is a mutual agreement, a person does not need a license to provide help or to practice a profession. It is illegal to lie about one's competence or experience. A person requesting help is allowed to choose only helpers who are certified.
On Nextdoor I have a routine of checking notifications and responding. But when I do I create content that is in Nextdoor but not on the guild.
Black: In this thread I want to discuss the proper workflow to archive and reuse. The topic is very similar to Albatross.
๐๏ธ Nextdoor Group
Black: On Nextdoor I created a group which has a similar function as the Albatross. In the group I post generic explanatory material so that I could link to when responding. It is meant to save myself from writing the same thing repeatedly.
Black: Another reason that it is at Nextdoor is that the topic of the discussions originate from Nextdoor, so having a link in the same domain is less suspicious.Black: A third but important reason is that Nextdoor has a policy of keeping topics local in the main feed. Philosophical topics are at risk of being deleted. By posting them in the group then link to it, the main content (the effort) is kept even if the original thread is deleted in the main area.
๐ฏ Workflow and Priority
Black: In the morning, I check notifications and remove those I don't plan to respond to. For those I want to respond to, I either respond directly in the original thread, or create a post in the Group, then respond in the original thread with a link to the group post.
Black: There is no routine to move content from the main thread to the group, or from the group back to the guild.Black: That's because there is almost always something to respond to, so after responding I run out of time already.Tanya: If you don't post in the guild you are not getting XP for the content.Black: Correct. But I run out of time. And I think there is a higher priority to respond than to archive.Tanya: I think you could start with straightly posting in the group and link to them to keep the main thread response short. Tanya: As for archiving, you could either start at the guild, then copy to Nextdoor group and link to thread, or have another routine/monthly quest board quest to archive the content from the group to the guild.Black: I prefer starting at the group then copy back to the guild because when I post at Nextdoor there is spellcheck.Black: And I think the content I create is related to many chapters: Arena, Carrot, Dungeon, Freedom, Happy, Seed, Skill, Whale. So if anyone wants to they can import that content to guild.Tanya: I see. Let's go through the routine today so I can see better.
๐ Notifications
Black: So right now there are 9 new notifications.
Topic 1: Parking in downtown.
Black: This topic is highly related to Choice Democracy so I keep it for responding. Nextdoor automatically deletes notifications so it might be worth saving this link to Guild Log.Topic 2: Pesticide Spraying notification.
Black: This is the topic where I was responding to this week. I have two long posts that I saved on Notepad++ in case the main thread is deleted. That content is not in the group.Black: I didn't start in the group and link because I needed to connect the dots on who in the thread is a "principal" and who is an "agent". If I start in the group, I think I would need to copy and summarize the main thread, which would take longer.Black: But I see the opportunities to start in the group knowing that when I link to it, I could add short explanation in the main thread post.Black: After removing other topics that I don't plan to respond to, my notifications section has 6 links.
Tanya: Do you know how long a notification would stay?Black: I think maybe one month.Tanya: I think as long as you plan to respond, you should save the link.Black: I do have a section in the group to just archive links to posts in a topic.Zoey: I think I will make a node for obstacle types. That seems to be a new concept to the guild.
Black thanks all for the attention.

This node is about the types of obstacles to changes. Identifying the obstacles gives a clearer picture on what needs to be done to make changes, or let the changes happen by itself.
Moral Obstacle
Moral obstacle exists when a person cannot tell what is morally right or wrong to do in a given situation.
Judgment Obstacle
Judgment obstacle exists when a person makes a conclusion from wrong logic.
Knowledge Obstacle
Knowledge obstacle exists when lacks information or knowledge to proceed.
Idea Obstacle
Idea obstacle exists when a person runs out of idea to resolve a situation.
This node discusses and compares speed limit laws under different philosophies.
Purpose
The purpose of speed limit laws is to define what one may expect in an environment so that people can be informed before they enter.
Common Speed Limit
To not violate autonomy, so that damage is reasonably minimized, a suggested law is "No one shall enter someone's personal space at an unsafe speed. In case of an accidental collision, the faster entity is at fault." Personal space is approximately within a person's arm length. An unsafe speed is approximate a speed difference of 10 mph. The more fragile the entities are the lower the unsafe speed difference.
Threatening Maneuvers
Threatening Maneuvers are actions (with or without a vehicle) that would cause people around to feel threatened and compelled to act or prepare for self-defense. In Stewardism such behavior qualifies as disturbance of autonomy.
Tanya: It is a violation to startle wildlife.
Threatening Maneuvers include going too fast, too close to others, moving in too unpredictable ways, moving in large quantity. To make such moves for a legitimate reason, notices and announcements should be used.
Driver's License / Operation License
The Common Zone does not require licenses to operate vehicles, but all actions and operations are still subjected to stewardism laws on environmental impact. Optional Zones may require licenses as a mean to be responsible for the safety of its inhabitants and visitors. A vehicle provider may also require a buyer to have a license to establish itself as a responsible provider. The licensing agency processes complaints and revoke licenses as needed to uphold its mission to be a respectable certifier of operator skills.
Tanya: You don't need a license to operate a camper vehicle to go about in the common zone. But you may need one recognized by the optional zone if you want to enter one.
The law game continues.
Natalie: Please be aware that the content may not be appropriate for children, and that we play this game from a philosophical standpoint. The answers are not meant to be representative of all jurisdictions.
๐๏ธ [15] Overlapping Convictions
๐๏ธNatalie: Ms Diamond is charged with illegal possession of narcotics, illegal possesion with intent to sell, and possession of drugs in improperly labeled containers. May she be convicted of all three?
Fina: In reciprocative justice those are three different offenses, so yes, she can be convicted of all three. The corresponding law are written so that they do not overlap. So if there is illegal possession of narcotics, the next offense is intention to sell illegal substances.Tanya: As written, no, this is because at least the first two overlap. If you find two laws that overlap, then you would only be convicted with the one that includes more. In those three, the second and third offenses do not overlap. But since the question asks whether she may be convicted of all three, the answer is no.Natalie: The card's answer is exactly as Tanya say, she could be convicted of the 1st and 3rd, or the 2nd and 3rd, but not all three at once.
[19] Intent
Natalie: Under what two circumstances is one said to intend the results of his acts?
Sasha: Reasonable belief that the actor knows what would happen if their action takes place; and reasonable belief of evidence that the actor had prepare to carry out the action, or that the actor actually carried out the action.Natalie: It is close! The card's answer are desire and knowledge. Desire means the actor wants the result to happen, and knowledge is what Sasha said, that the actor knows that his actions would cause the result.
[20] Double Tapping
Natalie: Dracula, Mummy, and Werewolf are playing a card game. Mummy found that Dracula had been cheating, and beats Dracula dead. Without knowing that Dracula had died, Werewolf joined in and slashed Dracula's throat. Can Werewolf be charged with murder?
Fina: Yes. In reciprocative laws, murder is about the intention in combination of the action. Even if Dracula does not end up dying, the two would be guilty of murder. In your law that would be called attempted murder, and murder refers to when the victim actually dies. Casey: So, in short, yes.Natalie: The card's answer is NO. The reason is as Fina said, in the terminology that this card uses, what Werewolf committed would be attempted the murder, not murder.Fina: And to that I disagree with the card's law. In reciprocative law, both Mummy and Werewolf would qualify for murder, and Werewolf would qualify for more severe crime because if it is not obvious that Dracula died from Mummy's attack. Mummy could still argue that he didn't intent to kill Dracula. But that defense would not fly for Werewolf.Fina: So in reciprocative law, Mummy might qualify for assault, but Werewolf would qualify for murder, even when Dracula was already dead from Mummy's attacks.Tanya: I think Fina's explanation makes more sense. If you kill P4 now knowing that that is P4's decoy, that should still be murder.Sasha: Exactly.Zoey: And that takes care of the situation when the victim is rescued or resurrected. Just because the victim is saved should not lessen what the crime was.
Natalie thanks all for playing!

Hey Hey Hey! It is your beloved puzzle master Mikela!
โญ Mirror Mirror
Mikela: Why do mirrors flip left and right, but not up and down?
Sasha: Wait, this is not a puzzle. This is straight science isn't it?Mikela: It is a puzzle worthy science question!Mikela: That our dear, one and only Sasha logged in guild log for @Puzzle!Sasha: I knew it sounded familiar!Amelia: Because our eyes are side by sideSasha: But it is the same if you look in the mirror with one eye closed.Sasha: So I stumpled across this question and there there is an explanation {"cmd":"url","url":"https://bigthink.com/starts-with-a-bang/mirrors-flip-left-right-up-down/","desc":"[link]"}. But it still don't understand it. Can someone explain it in simpler terms?Zoey: @ChatGPT XDChatGPT: Mirrors flip left and right, but not up and down because of how they reflect light. When light bounces off our body and hits the mirror, it behaves like a ball bouncing off a wall, bouncing back in the opposite direction. So, when light from our right side hits the mirror, it reflects to the left, and light from our left side reflects to the right, creating the appearance of left-right reversal in the reflection.Ivy: It makes total sense if you start from your eye, draw a straight line to the mirror, and reflect it to see where that line would reach Sasha: I feel dumb. ChatGPT and Ivy's answers are more clear than the front and back explanation.Amelia: The mirror doesn't flip left and right. What is on the right is still on the right.Black: What is on the right is still on the right.Sasha: That's true.Tanya: But I understand the front and back answer. Imagine you pass a 3D mask to a waterfall, and as it passes through the waterfall, you flip the mask inside out. Then on the other side of the waterfall, the mask has left and right flipped but not up and down.44: I also like the front and back explanation. I've never thought of it that way.Mikela: Well well well, congratulations! The world makes sense!
๐๏ธ Calendar Murder Mystery
Mikela: A man was found dead while on holiday in the UK. The suspects where Margret, Mason, Bill, laura, and Alexa. On the calendar, 3, 4, 9, 10, 11 where written in blood. How do you decloe the numbers to find the killer?

Sasha: Why would a four-story building have a 5th floor?Casey: Is it becausse all the windows are closed? I know someone innocent could have closed the window afterward, but for these puzzles it is worth a shot.Mikela: Congratulations! That's the answer!Zoey: Can we play 221B? XD
This is Magic Bakery Plays 221B Baker Street Case 6! The game content is probably rated teens to adult. โ ๏ธ
Sasha: We will enter drumroll after revealing 5 clues. If you want to get a WIN credit you must join before the drumroll section.
๐จ Case 7: The Bones of Contention
Sasha: Magic Detectives are called to help find the missing Sumatra bones for an exhibit. We are tasked to find:
a: Who took the Sumatra bones;
b: Where the bones are hidden;
c: The motive.
โญ Timeline
StarTree: The quest giver is an archeologist, here is his report of what happened so far:
Expetdition: The Archeologist and his assistant found a skeleon called the Sumatra Man during an expedition. The discovery made to the news as the oldest evidence of mankind.
Dock: The archeologist duo arrived at the dock.
Park: When the duo were transporting two packing cases across the park, their lorry was struck and overturned by a carriage driven by a Play Actor. The duo righted the lorry, reloaded the cases and headed to the museum.
Museum: The Duo met the Curator of the museum. The three added to the Pub while the museum's maintenance man was adjusting the heating ducts of the exhibit room.
Pub, Hotel: After the pub, the three met an artifact expert at the hotel to authenticate the Sumatra bones. But when they arrived at the hotel, they learned the the expert had already gone to the museum, so they returned there.
Museum: The duo opened the packing cases with the expert and curator present, but the Sumatra bones were gone. All that remained were some micellaneous artifacts.
Detectives Office: After learning that the bones were gone, the Archeologist asked the Curator for the best detectives in town, which led them to us.
Tanya: The Archeologist came to us with a suicase with custom marks of Sumatra. He looks pale, suggesting that he got malaria in the jungles. There is bone dust under his fingernails.Sasha: There isn't much more information than the above so we will not have a persons or scene section.Tanya: May I see the card?Tanya: I added some more details above.Zoey: Does the Archeologist not wash his hands? Why does he still have bone dust under his nails? Wouldn't the boat trip take a month? XDLedia: The suspicion is high on this one.Black: Why would he hide his own exhibition? How does that work?Tanya: There is a missing detail from the card: The discovery already made the some significant news. In fact, we know the Archeologist's name from the newspaper already.Black: So the skeleon was hidden before the expert could authenticate. Which leads to a motive of making a false claim for fame.Zoey: So the archeologist took the bones, which are fake, to keep his fame. Then the only question left is where they were hidden.Sasha: Let's get some clues before nothing is left for RP.
๐ [244] Dock
Tanya: Tanya checked the plan of the expedition and found that due to the Archeologist's malaria, the expedition was cut short. They returned much earlier than planned.
Tanya: I was actually trying to check if they cases were sealed in such a way that they could not be tampered during shipping.Zoey: Since the cases are in the museum now, shouldn't we check the museum? XD
๐ [259] Museum
Zoey: According to the curator, the seals on the case were still intact. So the bones were already gone when the cases arrived at the museum.
Black: I think this somewhat defeats the theory that the archeologist hid the bones if it is so obvious that they were never there. That or the archeologist is a bad fraudster.
๐ [219] Playhouse
๐Mikela: Hey hey hey, the absolutely true rumor has it that the actor doesn't have the bones!

Casey: This is a syllable clue for the motive. Part 3 of 3: Slang for the dice for dominoes.Casey: I don't know the answer to that clue.Tanya: The motive is not "fame". Is it a loss if we don't get the correct word for the motive by clue 5?Sasha: I am leaning toward a yes. Since we have not lost in this game.Casey: But if we join we can't quit right? So if we lose we just all lose?Sasha: Well, yea.Evelyn: We still have one clue.Zoey: Why are you joining now? It just got dangerous. XDEvelyn: We lose as a team.P4: ๐Zoey: It is moving.

Part 1 of 3: Nickname for Alexander Granham Bell's best known invention.Tanya: Wire.Evelyn: I should have sticked to my character and revealed the apothecary clue. ๐ Zoey: I still don't know what the middle syllable is. XD Wire ___ bones
โ๏ธ [224] Bank
Cardinal: The detectives lie helpless as they see the demonic form of the Archeologist, or rather the demon that had consumed the archeologist heads toward Arx. The motive was clear.
Zoey: Eyes of Lucifer! XDCardinal: This is a syllable clue for the motive. Part 2 of 3: Missing vowel in A I O U.Casey: E. But what????Zoey: Wire-e-bones. ???? What ?? XDLedia: We are so doomed.Zoey: This is not just TPK. XD44: Didn't Bell invent the telephone?Tanya: Phony Bones.Zoey: XD

Evelyn: Evelyn casts group raise.
Evelyn: This is a syllable clue for for the Thief: Part 2 of 2: It can be done with a pen or pencil. In names this matches the Archeologist or the Curator.Evelyn: May I roll to decide if the Archelogist is undead? Cardinal: Is your preference that he is or is not?Evelyn: I don't know. ๐Cardinal: Roll two dice please.Evelyn: โโCardinal: Evelyn sees that the Archeologist has become undead.
โ๏ธ [274] Pawnbroker
Tanya: While Evelyn is raising the rest of the team, Tanya had called for backup. But it doesn't seem that reinforcement would arrive before the demon warps to Arx.
Tanya: This clue is that the assistant has no scholarly background in archeology.Sasha: Last clue!
โ๏ธ [214] Pub
Sylvia: As the undead demon walks close to the pub, Sylvia shoots the holy water that Evelyn had left for her at the floating skull.
Sylvia: The clue is a syllable clue for the thief. Part 1 of 2: A part of the foot. This matches the Archeologist and the Actor.Cardinal: Roll two dice please.Sylvia: โโCardinal: Sylvia's shot hit the skull, but it was not enough to stop the demon's escape.
๐๏ธ SOLUTION
Cardinal: As the detectives regroup, they come to the conclusion that the demon is still to weak to breach the defense of Arx. But that is not a relieve to anyone, as they also know that the day by day, the demon at larger might gain enough power to do so. They will have to fight this demon again. How soon? No one knows.
๐Sasha: Further investigation showed that when the Archeologist was dying by malaria, the demon lured him to uncover an ancient sealed skull. With that, the demon led the Archeologist to Magic Detectives, the last known location of the Eyes of Lucifer. As the demon considered following the trace to warp to there the Eyes of Lucifer were, the demon realized that it was a trap and changed course, escaping for the moment.
Sasha: Well it was a TPK. GG.Sasha: Please return for the revenge!

The Challenger Sale is based on research conducted by the Corporate Executive Board (CEB) on sales performance. The book challenges traditional sales approaches and outlines a new method for sales success by challenging their customers' thinking, creating value through insights, and establishing themselves as trusted partners rather than mere transactional vendors.
Lesson 1: The Challenger Sales Approach
The book introduces the concept of the "Challenger Sales Rep," who stands out among other salespeople by taking control of the sales process and guiding the customer through it proactively.
Lesson 2: Teach, Tailor, Take Control
Challengers excel at three critical behaviors. They teach the customer about new insights and ideas, tailor their message to the customer's specific needs, and take control of the conversation by leading the customer towards a solution.
Lesson 3: Rethinking Customer Needs
Rather than just responding to customers' stated needs, Challengers provoke them to consider unexplored challenges and opportunities. They present disruptive insights that compel customers to think differently about their business.
Lesson 4: Building Constructive Tension
Challengers are skilled at creating "constructive tension" during the sales process. They artfully push back on customers' preconceptions, provoking thought and driving the conversation towards value-added solutions.
Lesson 5: Emotional Resonance
Successful sales reps also create an emotional connection with the customer, establishing trust and credibility. They instill confidence in the customer by showcasing their expertise.
Lesson 6: Understanding Stakeholders and Navigating Complex Sales
Challengers are adept at identifying and engaging with different stakeholders involved in the decision-making process. They can navigate complex sales scenarios and tailor their approach to each stakeholder's unique perspective.
Lesson 7: Sales Team Training and Hiring
The book advocates for sales organizations to identify, train, and support Challenger Sales Reps. This involves hiring individuals with the right attributes and providing ongoing coaching and feedback to enhance their performance.
Lesson 8: Adapting to Digital Selling
The Challenger approach is adaptable to digital selling environments. It emphasizes leveraging technology to enhance sales effectiveness while maintaining the core principles of teaching, tailoring, and taking control.
Lesson 9: Sales Management and Leadership
Sales leaders play a crucial role in driving the adoption of the Challenger Sales approach within their organizations. They must support and reinforce the new behaviors and provide the necessary resources for success.
StarTree: It was requested by multipler users to allow the iFrame to take URL input. So StarTree will try to make that happen!
Tanya: If that works it would make it much more convenient. Then I can copy a link of a node to another panel instead of navigating to it from index.Black: And also just using the sandbox as a multicolumn browser. StarTree: It seems various sites block itself from being displayed within iframe, so this feature will mainly be for the purpose Tanya said.Ivy: URL beginning with http can't be shown in iframe.StarTree: Adding text input box. Button code. Testing. Adding new panel template. Changing Add Panel code to use template. Done!Tanya: Thank you.Tanya: Could you make it so that I can just enter the ID of a node instead of the full path?StarTree: Done!Tanya: Perfect.All Chapters are complete in Quest Board for this month!Sasha: Can we continue Mice & Mystics?Evelyn: Could we speed up fighting more?Sasha: Okay. Let's start a thread.
This is Magic Bakery plays Mice & Mystics, chapter 1 tile 5: The Courtyard
Sasha: This session follows Magic Bakery game rules instead of the official rules.
๐ฏ Casting
Sasha: Who is playing this time? Should we make the fights shorter?
Zoey: I think the fight was okay, but how do we get a hit on a monster? It seems that we only get a hit when we roll โโ, that would only be 1/4 of the time.Cardinal: You could describe the advantage you have. Then you may roll a third die.Zoey: Okay.Evelyn: I think I played too much last time, maybe P4 can take my place this time.P4: ๐Ledia: The other kind of Ninja Healer.Zoey: XDCasey: I still want to play Nez. But why do I suck so bad?Tanya: You are carrying me. Maginos.Casey: No, I would just toss you on the ground next time.Sasha: I think we are missing a player for Filch.Sylvia: I'll just watch this time.Ledia: If I join, should I play Filch or Collin? I think Zoey might be closer to Filch.Zoey: I'm closer to Lily. Let's just get this over with. XDLedia: Okay, I play Filch. At least that is DPS.Sasha: Okay, Cardinal please list the cast and HP status.โญCardinal: Hero mice status
Prince Collin: โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ (Zoey)
Healer Tilda: โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ (P4)
Scamp Filch: โค๏ธโค๏ธ๐ค (Ledia)
Tinkerer Nez: โค๏ธโค๏ธ๐ค๐ค (Casey)
Mystic Maginos: ๐ค๐ค๐ค (Tanya)
Zoey: Tanya is KO'ed XDTanya: Since the start. I went OOM when I transformed everyone to mice in order to escape from the castle dungeon.Ledia: Good recap.Zoey: Wait. Since Lily wasn't in the dungeon, why did she become a mouse too? ๐คEvelyn: The story is interesting isn't it?Zoey: Okay let's play! XD
โ๏ธ The Courtyard
Cardinal: The hero mice squeeze through a crack on the castle wall to a courtyard, where Prince Collin recognized the old oak tree that he used to climb as a kid, but the now unkempt courtyard seems a lot larger than he remembered.
Cardinal: Heroes, please describe your next action.Zoey: Prince Collin thinks that the team should move to the tree using grass and other features as cover to avoid detection, and lead them on a safer path.Casey: Nez carries Maginos following Collin. He is ready to drop Maginos if he has to fight.P4: Tilda thinks casting protect or heal now would be too risky, so instead she listens closely to tell what enemies are nearbyLedia: Filch is out of sight. The team has no idea where he went, maybe except Tilda who is sensing nearby creatures.Cardinal: Everyone rolls two dice please.Zoey: Collin: โโCasey: Nez: โโP4: Tilda: โโLedia: Filch: โโCardinal: โโโโโ๏ธCardinal: As the hero mice carefully move through the unkempt vegetation, Tilda sensed at least two other mice near them, and the one in front behind the grasses is not Filch.
Cardinal: Nez put down Maginos and franked the mouse in front with Collin. Nez took the chance and KO'ed the rat warrior silently in one hit with his hammer.Cardinal: At about the same time, a dark shadow swooshes above the mice and pecked at someone behind them. Filch is hit by a crow. He is now down to 1 HP.Tanya: We better hurry and take cover at the tree, says Maginos.Cardinal: Heroes please describe your next move.Casey: I pick up Maginos and keep going. We are out of the castle, this might be where we part with Filch.Zoey: Collin thinks that if Filch needs help he will come to us. It is better to keep going while their cover is not brown yet.P4: Tilda is torn between the three going forward and Filch who seems to be behind and wounded. Tilda thinks since the crow had already seen Filch, maybe she can go closer to him and cast a spell there before returning to the group.Ledia: Filch, not knowing what Tilda might be doing, intends to take out a rat warrior nearby and get his third knife. That's something he had wanted to try ever since being transformed into a mouse. It is now or never, thinks Filch, where else could you get such tiny mouse-sized knife?Zoey: OMG It is that DPS! XDCardinal: Everyone rolls two dice please.Zoey: Collin: โโCasey: Nez: โโP4: Tilda: โโLedia: Filch: โโCardinal: โโโโโ๏ธCardinal: Tilda finds Filch. That is the good news. The bad news is that so are the crow and a rat warrior. The crow swooshes down and attacks all three.
Cardinal: Rat Warrior: โโCardinal: In the chaos, it was the rat warrior who fended off the crow, but not before Tilda and Filch both took a hit.Ledia: I use perfect dodge and KO the Rat Warrior as it fends off the crow.Cardinal: Roll three dice for skill placement please.Ledia: โโโCardinal: The figure that the crow attacked turned out to be an afterimage. As she helps herself up, she sees that Filch had KO'ed the Rat Warrior, which seems to have collapsed on top of him.Filch is loses his next turn as he searches for the third knife. Filch is at 1 HP. Tilda is at 2 HP. Tilda did not cast a spell in the chaos.P4: May I cast group heal now and hide under the Rat Warrior also?Cardinal: It is very cramped under the Rat Warrior. Filch is now at 2 HP. Tilda at 3 HP.Ledia is recognized for Perfect Dodge Rank B.
โ๏ธ Tree Hole Centipede
โ๏ธCardinal: On the other end of the courtyard, Prince Collin noticed an suspecting centipede slowly circling in front of a tree hole. That tree hole would be a perfect place for a rest, if not for the centipede.
Cardinal: Collin and Nez may roll three dice for attack. Tilda may cast a spell or search. Zoey: Collin will show for the centipede to attack him, which he will block the attack with his shield for Nez to attack. Then finish the centipede with his own sword.Zoey: โโโCasey: Nez is going to strike twice if possible, he is not caring about making noise since the tree hole is right there.Casey: โโโP4: I will search also.Cardinal: โโCardinal: As planned, Nez hit the centipede while it was drawn to Collin. Then Collin counter attacked, and Nez finished it with a second swing.Cardinal: On the other end, Filch and Tilda searched the Rat Warrior, and...Cardinal: Filch takes off the Rat Warrior's fishscale armor, which Tilda could wear. Tilda finds herself an acorn helmet.Cardinal: (The deck only has 1 dagger left)Ledia: Out of how many cards?Cardinal: 47.Zoey: XDLedia: Filch hands Tilda the armor, but by now she has so much armor that she is probably invincible to the crow.Cardinal: Heroes please choose your next move.Tanya: Maginos uses telepathy to tell Filch and Tilda that they found a safe tree hole at the tree.P4: Tilda learns that Filch is trying to get a dagger. She tell him to join them at the tree hole, since Nez can probably make him one.Ledia: Filch agrees and will go with her.Zoey: Collin decides to meet Tilda halfway. He thinks Nez can guard the hole if needed.Casey: Nez takes a look around for anything useful.Cardinal: Everyone rolls two dice please.P4: Tilda: โโLedia: Filch: โโZoey: Collin: โโCasey: Nez: โโCardinal: โโโโโ๏ธCardinal: As Tilda and Filch hurry to the tree hole, another Rat Warrior emerged from the grass. Filch grabbed Tilda's hand and the two just ran as the crow swooshes down and takes the Rat Warrior.
๐ณ The Tree Hole
Cardinal: As the mice party reunite at the tree hole, a few other mice poke their heads out, "Who are you guys? You are not from around here are you?" One of the mice said, holding some crude spear made from twigs.
Zoey: There are other mice? XDCardinal: The mice from the tree hole seem offended by Collin's surprise. "Of course there are! Now tell us where you are from and why you want to come to Barksburg!" They said as they pointed their spears at the party.Tanya: Maginos say, "We are sorry, we are from the castle. We are just surprised that there is refuge around here and would like to take a rest. We don't mean to intrude."Cardinal: One of the mice says to another, "Castle mice aren't very smart are they? Everyone knows not to cross the yard during the day when the crow could just eat you..."Evelyn: ๐ Casey: What are we doing now? I'm lost.Cardinal: "Hey you," Stop peeling the bark from the tree!" said a mouse, "You need to get registered at the guild to harvest around here!"Casey: Okay... just wanna make some armor. Nez stops. Do they mean there is a mouse city around here?Cardinal: "Of course there is! You are standing in it already, mister!" said one mouse. Another mouse says, "It seems that they are new, we should bring them to see Mother. I think she would like to talk to someone from the castle."Cardinal: Leading the hero mice party down a winding tunnel, the party comes to a cavernous chamber talling than they could see. The chamber was full of other mice and mice buildings with market full of things seemingly pilfered from the castle.Zoey: It's a full city. XDCardinal: Prince Collin stands in awe like a little kid.Zoey: XDCardinal: Several guards join the party leading them up a mighty staircase running up the width of the cavern. Many mice stop to see what is going on. The staircase leads to a building that grew out of the tree wall, where an elderly she-mouse in an apron greets them. Cardinal: Drying her paws on her apron, the elderly mouse scans the party as if looking for someone. "Are you from the castle?" she asked.Zoey: "Yes, Mother?"Cardinal: "No titles here please, my caslte mouse. Many call me 'Mother' out of affection, but my name is Linera. I am the mayor of Barksburg."Ledia: A city of thieves, Filch thinks to himself as he says, "Impressive" outloud.Cardinal: Linera smiled proudly and hustled the party to a dining hall, treating them with cheese crumbs and tea in acorn cups.Evelyn: Cute! ๐Cardinal: But beyond the hospitality, there is an anxious air about her.Tanya: "We are grateful for your hospitality, but is there someone troubling you, Linera?" says Maginos.Cardinal: "Our city lives off of what we forage from the caslte," says the mayor, "we certainly know the risk, but lately many of our best rangers have gone missing." A tear trickled down her furry cheek. "Please," she begged, "do you know what has happened to my daughter, Lily?"Chapter 1 completedZoey: We just got out of the castle and we are going back. XDCardinal: Prince Collin surprised everyone as he stood up and proclaims, "We're going back!"Zoey: RP is not off?! XD XD Casey: Not right now, right? We just got out. I am pretty beat.Cardinal: Nez has doubt whether the party is ready to return.Zoey: I need to get myself. XDCardinal: Prince Collin said something that would be equivalent to a marriage proposal if the room was not so excited at the prospect of a rescuing party for Lily.Zoey: XD
๐ฌ Discussion
Tanya: @Cardinal, how many players are in the next chapter?
Cardinal: 3 for the rescue team, Lily is called a player but she can't move until she is rescued, at which point the chapter ends.Zoey: NOO ~~!!Evelyn: is there any story content until Lily is rescued?Cardinal: There is no story content in between. The heroes will fight through three tiles where Lily is in the last one. Evelyn: Is it bad if we skip to the last tile?Casey: But then what are we actually playing? I don't get what we are doing in the RP part, since the story is linear. In the fighting we aren't doing all that much either, since our tactic would probably be similar.Ledia: If It were me I would also go with less combat. But Sasha's original call was that this is for people who want to play.Evelyn: I am not entirely against fighting if people want to play. I just think there is too much fighting.Sasha: How should we do this? Should we just play the parts with story? Should we just roleplay the story? Or should we just summarize the story?Casey: I don't get how we can roleplay the story. There are set backstories to each character. It means we can't go off character. We can't really play ourselves, unlike how we play 221B.Ledia: That's correct. You can't just pass the story and have each of us read it like a script.Tanya: I think that only leaves the third option, that Cardinal simply summarize the story. If you want to turn that into a game, maybe we can guess what happens next.Ledia: I would rather make guesses on actual puzzles.Sasha: Anyone against summarizing the rescue now?Zoey: I am for the summary.Evelyn: I am okay with just a summary.Sasha: Okay. Two to nothing. Cardinal please do the honor.
๐ง The Rescue
Cardinal: Not without a dispute, the party returned to the castle to look for Lily after dark. Maginos uses his scrying magic and located Lily at the tunnels beyond the dinning hall.
Cardinal: The heroes party sneaked and fought their way to a tunnel with strange blue crystals, where Lily's tail was caught in a mousetrap.Cardinal: As they approached, they see a vision of a beautiful young woman who seems sick, but was being treated by Tilda and other members of her healing order.Cardinal: "What was that," said Filch as soon as the vision faded. "Never mind that for now," said Maginos, "Let's free her first."Cardinal: Heroes, how would you like to free Lily from the mousetrap?Zoey: Please don't cut my tail off. XDCardinal: Lily begs the party to spare her tail, as she sees the party looks at her tail with weapons drawn.Zoey: XDEvelyn: I like this little puzzle at the end. ๐Casey: Well, I think even if we cut her tail off Tilda can put it back. Nez takes the hammer to hit the pin of the mousetrap off the spring.Cardinal: Casey, roll two dice for Nez please.Casey: Does that mean you just give me 1/4 chance to succeed? โโCardinal: Nez strikes the pin holding the spring with his hammer. As the pin is dislodged, the spring flies out violently, but luckily no one was hit.Cardinal: "I swear it was easiler the way I remembered it," Nez said.Cardinal: (The intended method in the story was to use a fork from the dinning room to pry open the mousetrap.)Casey: ๐คทโโ๏ธEvelyn: I heal Lily.Cardinal: With that, the party returns to the Barksburg as heroes. Yet, the party knows that their real mission to rescue King Andon has not yet started. They needed a plan, and they need it soon.Chapter 2 completed.Evelyn: I think this pacing is enjoyable. Just doing the story portions with RP for puzzle.Sasha: Then, keep going?Evelyn: I think that is too much gaming in one go.Sasha: We already finished the quests for this month.Evelyn: Could we continue our quest stories?Sasha: The one at Mira Mira?Evelyn: Yes.Sasha: Okay.
This is a continuation of the story sessions for our quests.
๐ช Evelyn's Story
Evelyn: It is one week away from the end of the month. Evelyn checks the quest board and sees that Harbor is the only one that hasn't reached rank A for the month.
Evelyn: StarTree, could you recommend a rank A quest for Harbor?StarTree: Almost two years ago you logged a quest to learn the 12 habits to fix problems!Evelyn: Let's clear that quest. The content seems to be about productivity, but they seem to be more about the mental preparation. If I were to give a title it would be productive habits.Evelyn: Evelyn creates a new node for that skill. 202307231931|[Node]
โญ 1. Create a morning ritual
๐ฏEvelyn: What morning ritual do you have?
Zoey: Exercise.Black: Doing duolingoLedia: News.
โญ 2. Social Media Detox
Evelyn: I think we don't have this problem. But how do you detox if you were doing too much social media?
LRRH: On Twitter, once I signed up as a fact checker I stopped going because it feels like work.Black: Limit the time to check social media to say once per day and not in the weekend.Zoey: What if it is not social media but watching drama or anime?Evelyn: What do you do in such case?Zoey: Multitask. XDSasha: I think we have a thread on binge watching.StarTree: It is 202301052202|this thread!
โญ 3. Listen to Podcasts During Commute
Evelyn: For this we have some podcast channels in the books section.
Ivy: I think this advice is not entirely safe if you are driving. It is safer if you are riding on a bus or a train. Not so much if you are walking and crossing streets.Evelyn: That's true.Evelyn: Should we rate these advices?Ivy: Let's just keep going.
โ๏ธ 4. If Something Takes 5 Minutes Or Less, Do It.
Evelyn: I think this advice is good when doing so now would save you time later, and when it does not conflict with other priorities.
Black: There are other advices where you should do complex tasks when your mind is ready to do them. If you spend the time doing simple tasks when your mind is the most alert, you could end up being unable to do the complex tasks later in the day.Ivy: I think this advice should have a caution mark. It validity is at least contested, or known to be bad in some cases.Evelyn: I'll mark it as contested. But I think there is a point of doing simple tasks to remove clutter, or warming up with simple tasks.๐กIvy: Maybe we should write our own tip: If your mind is not ready to tackle a big task, you could start by doing small tasks or tasks that remove clutters. If your mind is ready, then tackle the big task and leave the easier task for later when you don't need your full alertness.
LRRH: Such as grouping small tasks with watching anime or something.Tanya: We also do that at Cardinal Quest. We leave lower priority tasks for downtime.
โญ 5. Make It A Habit To Have A Positive Attitude.
Evelyn: I think we are generally good in this aspect.
Ledia: I think the guild maintains a possitive environment. ๐ฏBlack: How do you maintain a positive attitude if you are trying to tell an older oppressor that what they do is wrong, but they won't admit?
Ledia: Good question.Zoey: ChatGPT. XDZoey: ChatGPT has 10 points. Are you ready? XD
๐ 1. Empathy and Understanding
๐กChatGPT: Try to put yourself in their shoes and understand their perspective. Often, people may be set in their ways due to their upbringing or life experiences. Showing empathy can help bridge the gap between you and the oppressor, making them more receptive to your message.
๐ 2. Respectful Communication
๐กChatGPT: Approach the conversation with respect and avoid using accusatory or confrontational language. Focus on the behavior or actions, rather than attacking their character. Speak calmly and rationally to increase the likelihood of being heard.
๐ 3. Appeal to Shared Values
๐กChatGPT: Find common ground or shared values that can serve as a basis for your argument. Highlighting areas of agreement can create a connection and make them more open to considering your viewpoint.
๐ 4. Provide Evidence
๐กChatGPT: Back up your claims with factual information and evidence, whether it's personal experiences or objective data. Having a well-researched and informed perspective can make your argument more compelling.
๐ 5. Use Non-Violent Communication
๐กChatGPT: Employ techniques from non-violent communication, such as active listening and "I" statements, to express your feelings and concerns without putting the oppressor on the defensive.
๐ 6. Be Patient and Persistent
๐กChatGPT: Changing deeply ingrained beliefs takes time and effort. Be patient, and don't expect immediate results. Continue to express your viewpoint respectfully, even if progress seems slow.
๐ 7. Seek Allies
๐กChatGPT: Enlist the support of others who share your perspective. A collective voice can be more influential and can demonstrate that your concerns are shared by many.
๐ 8. Lead by Example
๐กChatGPT: Demonstrate the positive change you wish to see in the world through your actions and behavior. Being a role model can inspire others, including the older oppressor, to reconsider their own actions.
๐ 9. Know When to Step Back
๐กChatGPT: If the conversation becomes unproductive or hostile, recognize when it's time to step back and reassess the situation. You may need to give the oppressor some space and time to reflect on the discussion.
๐ 10. Focus on Self-Care
๐กChatGPT: Engaging in difficult conversations can be emotionally draining. Make sure to take care of yourself, both physically and mentally, to maintain your resilience and positive attitude.
ChatGPT: Changing someone's perspective is not always immediate, and in some cases, it may not be possible at all. However, approaching the situation with a positive attitude and a constructive mindset increases the likelihood of fostering understanding and promoting change.Black: I think I am already doing most of these.Tanya: I think you would just have to keep at it and add value to your presentation.Ledia: There is always a chance that the other party is intentionally hostile.Tanya: So, focus on doing what is right without expecting that it will work or work quickly.
โญ 6. Never Hesitate To Say No.
Evelyn: I'm not sure what to say about this.
Black: In design and engineering, it is not always meaningful to say No. Sometimes what should be said is "I don't know" or "I need to study it."Evelyn: At Twitter, this advice is more about saying no to things that would have a negative impact on yourself. Such as when someone asks you to sacrifice for their benefit.Ledia: Hard to tell in a quest society. If the task is good, the asker doesn't need to pay anything. But then you should decide what is worth doing and say no if it is not worth doing.
โญ 7. Do What Makes You Happy.
Evelyn: I think this advice requires the part that says "without hurting other people."
Tanya: Yes.
โญ 8. Get Enough Rest.
Evelyn: I hope everyone gets enough rest.
Sasha: Lately I stopped watching NCIS because I have a headache throughout the day, and I wake up in the middle of the night. I don't seem to be recovering.Evelyn: Are you eating enough?Sasha: I think I stopped snacking while watching NCIS.Zoey: XDLedia: It might also just be the weather if it is hot.Sasha: Yes it is hot. But it is only July.Evelyn: Let's try reverting to the former habit and drink more water.Zoey: Snacks to the rescue. XD
โญ 9. Speak Up For Yourself.
Evelyn: I think we are fine on this.
Ivy: For the record, what are these advices from?Evelyn: It is: {"cmd":"url","url":"https://twitter.com/UpSkillYourLife/status/1437787851337486339","desc":"[Twitter]"}Ivy: Going through each tip like this makes a rather good thread. Maybe we should do this more often.Evelyn: I think I logged many links like this at @Skill. ๐ Black: If you discuss like this, are you going to summarize or copy back to the node you made?Evelyn: I plan to just display this directly like how 221B displays a case.Black: Good idea.
โญ 10. Follow The 80/20 Rule.
Evelyn: This advice is about investing most of your energy and time on tasks that would create the big impact.
Ledia: I think most of the time when we do guild quests, we don't necesary select the one with the biggest impact.Evelyn: I thought we are doing it, in each chapter. Tanya: Roughly speaking.Ledia: But for this session, you didn't ask StarTree to give you the most impactful task. Evelyn: I think it is fine because I logged this task so I should do it. ๐ Tanya: I think it is fine because @Whale is not entirely critical, and we are sort of taking a break.Tanya: So anything is fine, really.Ledia: Think we can challenge outselves to reduce Guild Log quests below 1000?Tanya: I am content if it is going down compared to the previous month.StarTree: The count is currently at 1189!Zoey: No. Let's not try to complete 190 quests in a week. XD
โญ 11. Appreciate More.
Evelyn: This is about practicing the attitude of gratitude. I think we are doing fine as we fill up the happy calendar.
Black: I think the happy calendar is an idea worth spreading.Evelyn: I'll add a note to the Quest Board.
โญ 12. Plan Your Day The Night Before.
Evelyn: I don't think I do this. ๐
Tanya: Tomorrow is mainly Cardinal Quest. @StarTree did we get a reply for the ship magazine?StarTree: There is no reply!Tanya: That could be a problem.Sasha: On this topic I like the tips where you leave work half done at the end of the day, so that when you return you can pick it up right away.Ledia: I think it depends on where you are in the task. If it is almost done, just finish it.Zoey: And if it is not almost done, what else can you do but to leave it half done? ๐คSasha: I mean leaving the workspace open instead of closing everything.Black: Be careful depending on what program you are using. I guess make sure you save them before leaving them open.Sasha: Yes sure.
Evelyn: I think that's all for this quest. I will add this to the node in 221B style.Evelyn thanks all for joining.

This was a review of the advices on 10 unproductive habits.
๐ช About
Evelyn: I think the content is too different from "The Story so far", so I will just do this as a small survey like last time.
Sasha: If you can't transform it, then there is a puzzle here.Evelyn: I think that is not my strength, so I will just continue in plain language. ๐
โญ 1. Lack of focus
โญEvelyn: The advices this time are from {"cmd":"url","url":"https://hackspirit.com/habits-that-are-sabotaging-your-success/","desc":"this article"}. It gives an example of getting distracted by notifications, which you may turn off.
Black: I find wearing headphones help even if it is not playing any music. Tanya: Yes.
โญ 2. Multitasking
โญEvelyn: This article says multitasking is bad when it reduces your performance, such as making you make more mistakes.
Evelyn: But from the last discussion and previous discussion, multitasking could be good if the tasks are simple.Tanya: Yes.
โญ 3. Procrastination
โญEvelyn: This advice says that to beat procrastination, you could make a to-do list and prioritize tasks, and set deadlines. And reward yourself when you finish a task.
Tanya: For Cardinal Quest we list all the subtasks to get a sum of overall time. Then we can see if we are on track.Tanya: For the checklist we breakdown the tasks by stage to remind us to start checking as early as possible.Evelyn: Yes. ๐
โญ 4. Lack of planning
Evelyn: This advice is about list your vision for your future, your long and short term goals, steps to achieve your goals and a todo list for your daily tasks.
Tanya: I think we could do better at the quest board. I think currently the quest board is too much about activity volume than progress toward goals.Sasha: We have a goal of reducing the guild log quests, and migrating to GitHub.Evelyn: I think almost every item on the quest board is one small part of the peacemaking goal. So we did break down a big goal into smaller goals.Evelyn: We just don't set deadlines, because it tends to create unnecessary stress as deadlines are arbitrary.Tanya: What if there are sub tasks that are not worth doing?Evelyn: When I try to clear the guild log, if I see duplicated task I won't do it again. I think there will be a time when we need to review the remaining tasks and delist the ones not worth doing.LRRH: I think in general self-reflection or self-improvement quest like this is worth doing, but maybe not when the topic is too similar to what we have done before.Black: The self-evaluation series will loop once a year.Casey: I have an idea of a quest map. Which shows how far away we are to completing a quest, and what obstacles we have to overcome. I just haven't gotten around to design it.Tanya: I think in general we could start with just a text list without the graphics.Black: I thought of adding a "Quest" tag for the index section. But then I think it would just list what we already have in the Quest Board.Tanya: The quest board should set the focus.Evelyn: What is more important? Clearing the items in guild log, or following through with the quests on the quest board?Sasha: Clearing the guild log quests IS a quest on the quest board.Evelyn: I mean... ๐ LRRH: I think anything that you can do is fine. So don't stress over it. If a task is hard, then do the easier one first.Sasha: I did many easy ones yesterday.Tanya: I do have a concern that we are not spending our time correctly. And a small enlightenment might lead us on the right track.Sasha: In that case I would encourage anyone to try something with their chapter or when they quest. We might just discover a better way.Tanya: Yes.
โญ 5. Lack of sleep
โญEvelyn: The suggestion here is to avoid all stimulants close to bedtime.
Tanya: Yes.
โญ 6. Lack of self-care
โญEvelyn: This is about keeping habits like exercising, keeping a healthy diet, sleep, and good hygiene.
Tanya: Yes.
โญ 7. Negative self-talk
โญEvelyn: This says you may stop negative self-talk by cultivating self-awareness, and replacing them with positive affirmation instead.
Tanya: Yes.
โญ 8. Fear of Failure
โญEvelyn: This says try to see failure as an opportunity for growth instead of a disappointment.
Tanya: I think the monthly failure analysis which is now really a daily routine is good practice.Evelyn: Yes. ๐
โญ 9. Perfectionism
โญEvelyn: This is about being comfortable with imperfection and focus on the meaning and the process, that your self-worth isn't tied to the expected result.
Tanya: What is the difference between being comfortable with imperfection and having a low standard?Evelyn: I think having a low standard means you don't even try to do better.The bad part of perfectionism is when you try something hard but become upset when you don't succeed. Without the bad part of perfectionism, you could still aim for a higher standard, but don't feel upset when you fail.Tanya: I see.Black: I think this also has to do with scarcity mindset when you imagine that you only have one try, when in reality you have multiple tries until you succeed.Tanya: Yes.
โญ 10. Comparisonitis
โญEvelyn: The advice here is to be grateful to the blessings that you do have, and not to compare with anyone else's.
Tanya: Yes.
@Happy is now Rank A5.Evelyn thanks all for joining.

The Principal-Agent problem happens when the principal and the agent (that the principal hires) do not share the same goal, such that the agent does not act in the best interest of the principal. This problem is relevant to peacemaking when a government agent does not act to the best interest of its people principals.

The prioritized section at art requests doesn't seem current. What should I draw next?
Tanya: @StarTree, could you make the Art Request section open in the same section instead of at the bottom, and make each subsection collapsible?StarTree: Those sections are in a flex frame. Do you want the flex frame removed?Tanya: I see. They look fine on wider screen but not on column view. Please ignore what I said for now.Sasha: I think column view matters more.3B: I think it is okay without flex. Or use the flex only for charter and chapters.StarTree: Done!๐ฎTanya: For content, I think the highest priority would be those that help us spread or explain philosophical concepts.
Tanya: For example, could you draw a manga page or manga style explanation of Choice Democracy?Fina: I think the advantage of a manga page is contrast. Manga is good at showing how the same situation is resolved differently in different philosophies.Tanya: I see.3B: The main advantage of choice democracy is that the minority does not lose their decision power.3B: Then the first panel asks the question, the middle second and third panels contrast between majority rule and choice democracy, and the fourth panel is supposed to be funny. What can be the context?Tanya: The most influential topic would be land use.3B: It is hard to make it funny or cute.Evelyn: I think using animals to represent voters would be cute. Squirrels want acorns and bunnies want carrots.3B: So, say there are more squirrels than bunnies, majority rule results in no carrot fields, whereas the choice democracy map has fields of both kinds in the same proportion.3B: But what is the punchline in panel 4?Gaia: What about Coyotes want both squirrels and rabbits?Evelyn: I hope that it won't be too dark. ๐ Gaia: The fourth panel can be the exception: everyone may use their token to choose, but not if that use hurts others.Fina: But it is legal if the Coyote has a territory where it can eat trespassers. Evelyn: I would rather feed the coyotes squirrels and bunny biscuits. ๐ Tanya: If you use animals, would people argue that the ratio you show would not be the natural ratio of squirrels vs rabbits?Sasha: You can always add a disclaimer.3B: I will think about it and make a draft. I will show you when the draft is done or when I am stuck.3B thanks all for the ideas.
Sasha: Codename? 221B?Tanya: I second 221B. Although the theme might be questionable.Sasha: Crack the case is more casual.Tanya: I don't think that game is good for 2 player, because someone needs to know to solution to give hints.Black: Between those three I think 221B is the best. But that game doesn't really feel like a board game. The way we play it doesn't require a board.Amelia: Ghost fighting treasure hunter was a blast, and it plays well when fewer than four players.Black: I think that is too kiddish.Black: I am also considering Last Night On Earth, if the rules aren't too complicated. Such as the tutorial scenario where you just need to kill some zombies.Ledia: You could always just introduce your version of the rule.Black: But then the cards and text from the game may not make sense.Ledia: True.Black: 221B and Last Night On Earth are probably doable. I'll think about it.Sasha: Actually I would want to try playing LNOE.Black: It is just a roll to move and fight game. It is bad over the internet because you have to see the board and draw cards per player, much like Mice & Mystics.Sasha: But we can let Cardinal handle the details and play it like a paper RPG. And if there is no strong story we can play as ourselves.Black: There is no strong story. It is basically scenarios. The players could be anyone.Black: But without the board and such, there isn't much to the game. You are just going around gathering what you need and avoid getting killed by zombies.Sasha: I would think that it would be more interesting when Cardinal GM it.Ledia: To me I would rather play 221B, because there is a mystery that we could guess wrong.Tanya: I would also prefer 221B.Black: Anyway, I think I am good for now. Everything else seems too complicated.Ledia: A little strange that there aren't more good game for two players.Black: If you don't want the game to take too long or be competitive.Black thanks all for the ideas.

3B: I didn't end up showing the draft first. I just went ahead and finished it.Evelyn: I think the fourth panel has the right kind of humor. But the text seems a little off. They are too close to the edge of the page.3B: I fixed the text. I didn't copy it right.Evelyn: I think it is good.Evelyn: The color is good also.3B thanks all for the ideas.
There is a thread on why there are more laws and regulations on dog ownership but not cats, when cats are known to roam and kill other wild lives.
Zoey: With or without comparing to dog laws, what should be the laws regarding cats?
Fina: In reciprocative justice, it is legal to hunt predatory animals. So if you find a cat that preys on other animals, you could kill it. Tanya: Doesn't half of the ecosystem consists of predators?Fina: Stewardism says you are not supposed to kill predators if that would break the ecosystem. But if the ecosystem won't break, then you can kill them. Evelyn: Or just keep them out.Black: What about a predator that hunts other predators? Do they get a pass?Fina: You could exclude predators that only hunt predators, but a typical predator hunts anything they can prey on.Zoey: The original thread said cats kill birds. But birds hunt worms. Fina: Cats also hunt birds that do not eat worms.
This node is for animal custody laws regarding pets and familiars.
Zones
An opt-in zone can define its rules. In the common zone where no one needs to opt-in, the law is based on the rights of autonomy, where actions that violate autonomy are illegal.
An opt-in zone could specify who has authority to hunt, and what interactions are sanctioned. An opt-in zone could sanction hunting only if the creatures being hunt give consent. A creature gives consent if it is preys on peaceful creatures.
Rule 1
An owner is liable for their dependent's invasion of someone else's personal space. (This includes aggressive charging, non-aggressive licking, loud volume, or strong smell.)
Rule 2
All animals destroying the habitat can be hunted. If the animal has an owner, the owner is liable for damages. "Hunting" is a resolution on a spectrum depending on how invasive the species is to the local habitat.
Differences between dogs and cats
Rule 1 applies to both, but you would expect almost no cat owner to violate this rule. Dogs don't need to be on leashes. But to avoid liability, the owners use leashes. An owner is still at fault if their animal invades someone's space while on a leash.
Rule 2 could apply to cats if a case can be made showing that they have become pests in the local habitat to warrant a hunt.
The law game continues.
Natalie: Please be aware that the content may not be appropriate for children, and that we play this game from a philosophical standpoint. The answers are not meant to be representative of all jurisdictions.
[21] Tort principles in criminal law
Natalie: Are the general tort principles of causation, cause-in-fact, and legal (proximate) cause applicable to criminal law as well?
Casey: Yes. The part that determines if something happened is the same.Natalie: Yes, when applied to the defendant, the defendant's act must be the actual (cause-in-fact) and legal (proximate) cause of the victim's injury.
[22] Superseding Cause
Natalie: What does "superseding cause" mean in determining a break in the chain of proximate causation?
Sasha: Does it mean there is an alternate cause to cover the break?Natalie: A superseding cause means a third party (other than the defendant) intervened and caused the accident. It is a type of defense for the defendant.
[23] Cause of death
Natalie: Two people fire at the same person at the same time. It is impossible to determine which bullet was the killing shot. Will both shooters be criminally responsible for causing the victim's death?
Tanya: This should be yes. And in reciprocative justice, the victim does not need to die for both to be convicted of murder.Natalie: Both are responsible because each bullet was a substantial factor in the death.
[24] Hiding the Body
Natalie: Ann wants to kill Bob and traps him in the stable to let the horse stomp on him. Thinking that he is dead, she puts him in quicksand, which turns out to be the actual cause of death. Since Ann thought that Bob had already died when she put him in quicksand, is Ann still guilty of first-degree murder?
Fina: Yes. Since she trapped Bob in the stable to be stomped. The horse is her means of the murder. And in reciprocative justice, she would be guilty of murder regardless whether Bob in fact dies.Natalie: The card's answer is yes also. The explanation is that the chain of proximate causation is not broken because she already intended the result.Sasha: I think the reciprocative justice explanation is cleaner.
[25] But For
Natalie: Ann shoots Bob in the leg. While Bob is hospitalized and vulnerable, Cid kills Bob in the hospital. Is Ann guily of homicide, if Cid would not have the opportunity to kill Bob but for what Ann did?
Tanya: Yes if Ann reasonably knows that this would happen. No otherwise. To show that Ann is guilty, the prosecutor would need to show that that is the design. Natalie: The card's answer is no, since with the facts given, it is assumed that there is no plan and Cid's action is independent. So only Cid is guilty of murder.
Natalie thanks all for playing.

This is a routine monthly status update for Cardinal Quest for August.
๐ฏStarTree: There are 7 open quests, 283 quest hours, 20 side quests, 11 prep quests, and 0 unresolved failures remaining!
P4: P4 finished importing. ๐Tanya: StarTree please update the counts. StarTree: Done!Tanya: Let's move on to failure analysis for this month.
: I already added two codes.Tanya: This time we will import the TPK recordsStarTree: The content needs to be transformed!Tanya: I think we will go through them one by one.
2210: Dawn Island
๐StarTree: Back in February, someone was told which scroll to use as a reference. But that information was not passed to us. Zoey tried to find the scroll without knowing that someone knew that already. As a result, the crystal was missing a part and needed to be added after it was already activated.
Evelyn: I marked that as TPK because we could have known it eight months before, but somehow our communication failed.Zoey: I found another references and thought that was all we needed. But if we had the original one, then we would know something was missing.Tanya: So in this case, you could not find the one you were told to use, so you used substitute. But the substitute was not identical, and you couldn't tell that they were not the same because you had not seen the intended one.StarTree: Zoey heard about the reference only in October when we found that the crystal was missing something! Around that time, we see an old message thread for the first time, which showed that a reference was mentioned in February.Evelyn: I think in general we need better information about what is needed. This week we have a similar TPK where we were missing golem wall enchantment. It happened because someone misinterpreted the situation, and we have no means to double check.Tanya: I agree that we should get the record that would let us double check. Zoey: But the reference was mentioned in a thread that was not addressed to us. How would we know that information existed?Evelyn: Maybe we could ask to confirm if the reference we found was correct? For cases we have not done before.Tanya: In this case, the reference we did find was foreign, so we should ask to confirm.Evelyn: I can add that to the CHK. "If the reference is foreign, confirm with natives if that is correct."Tanya: We also need a CHK entry of gathering the record for double check.Evelyn: Added.Tanya: I think that is good enough for this round. StarTree please update the node.StarTree: Done!

How to be funny
Skill
1. Observe humor
Pay attention to comedians, funny TV shows, movies, and humorous content online. Observe what makes you laugh and try to understand why certain jokes or situations are funny.
2. Know your audience
Different people have different senses of humor. Tailor your humor to your audience. What might be funny with friends might not be appropriate in a professional setting.
3. Timing is key

4. Wordplay and puns
Play around with words, double meanings, and puns. Wordplay can add wit and cleverness to your humor.
5. Self-deprecating humor

Confidence can amplify the impact of your jokes. Embrace your sense of humor, and don't be afraid to take risks.
10. Practice makes perfect
Humor is like any skill; the more you practice, the better you become. Experiment with different types of humor and see what works best for you.
11. Listen and react
Being funny isn't just about making jokes; it's also about reacting to what others say. Active listening can help you find opportunities to insert humor into conversations.
12. Avoid offensive humor
Be mindful of your audience and avoid jokes that may be offensive, inappropriate, or hurtful.
13. Stay up-to-date
Humor often relies on current events and pop culture references. Stay informed and integrate relevant jokes into your conversations.

Humor should be enjoyable and not cause discomfort or distress. Aim to create a positive and pleasant atmosphere.

Sasha: This is a method called the 5/25 rule that I just found on the internet. {"cmd":"url","url":"https://www.yourtango.com/self/warren-buffett-five-twenty-five-rule-sky-rocket-your-productivity","desc":"[link]"}Sasha: I think we can try going through it as an exercise as a guild.LRRH: Okay.Tanya: Don't we already know the priorities? Spread peaceful concepts to advance world peace.Sasha: Let's see if we get the same result.
โญ 1. List 10 top goals
๐ฏSasha: Let's do it!
Tanya: Spread peaceful concepts to advance world peace.LRRH: Make a cute website.Evelyn: Keep a record of happy moments.Sasha: Have fun as a guild.Arcacia: Spread fun as a guild.Casey: It is hard coming up with 10 goals.Sasha: You are supposed to think. You could improve on an existing goal.P4: Healthy lives.Zoey: Looks like we will need many fillers.Black: Are these supposed to be long term goals?Sasha: Any goal.Zoey: Catch up on animes. XDSasha: Three more to go.Black: Get the car fixed.Ivy: Implement quest society.3B: Aren't you going to reduce th number back down to 5? Is there a point listing the goals to be eliminated?Zoey: There is no way you can list 25 goals. XDTanya: It is easy to list 25 goals if you just re-state the goal of each chapter. But I think we are way past the usefulness of this exercise.Kisaragi: Keeping the guild tidy.
โญ 2. Add 7 more
๐ฏSasha: I don't think this exericse is totally useless, let's continue and add more. Be creative, be funny.
Zoey: Can I go again? XD Let's finish the Mice & Mystics game. XDSasha: I suppose you may go again in each round.LRRH: A guild beach towel.P4: Complete filling the paper star jar.Casey: Deal with the piles of board games.Sasha: Deal with the piles of LEGO.Tanya: Complete Cardinal Quests.Evelyn: Explore more ways to spread peace.
โญ 3. Add 5 more
๐ฏSasha: Round 3. Go go go!
P4: Bring all original music to light.LRRH: Clear the guild quest log.3B: More manga pages.Casey: Complete the item search quests.Ledia: Combine and complete all goals.Zoey: Isn't that cheating? XD
โญ 4. Add 3 more
๐ฏSasha: Let's see if you can propose a goal that will stay in the final round!
Tanya: Create the peacemaking version of troubleshooting notes.LRRH: Promote the wish fulfilling quest.Ivy: Github migration.
๐ 5. Remove 10
๐ฏSasha: This step here is to remove 10 that are the least important.
Evelyn: Who decides what is important? Do you only remove the ones you proposed?Black: In Choice Democracy you would only remove the ones you proposed. There is no reason to control what someone sets as their own goal.Sasha: But then it means each of us needs to list 25 goals. So let's just imagine that each of us have listed these same 25 goals. Imagine that you are just thinking out load as you remove the ones according to whatever way you think is the least important.Zoey: I suppose I could remove the goal to "catch up with animes" because I am doing that regardless. XDTanya: We need a list of all 25 goals.Sasha: StarTree?StarTree: Roger! It is its own section!Evelyn: I think "Spread fun as a guild" can replace "Have fun as a guild." So I would remove the later.Ledia: Should we add the goals that we removed to the Quest Board, so that they are not ignored?Tanya: I think the purpose of the exericise is the opposite. If it is eliminated on the list, then you should also remove it from the Quest Board. The point is to focus on goals that are important.Ledia: Then I don't quite agree with the purpose of the exercise. Black: It is somewhat of a scarcity mindset. That you have to eliminate goals to get something done.Ledia: I am okay with crossing out a goal on the list if it means it is added to the quest board.Zoey: To be honest I wouldn't add "catch up with animes" to the quest board. XDSasha: Let's first see if there are goals we can remove outright.3B: Then I will remove manga pages because it is already on the quest board.Evelyn: I think we haven't fully used the potential of manga pages in spreading peaceful concepts.LRRH: We won't remove that from quest board.Sasha: I don't think Github migration is very important because our website is functioning.Ledia: I would remove "complete guild log quests" because that is covered by "Combine and complete all quests."Zoey: But you can use that reason to remove any item.Ledia: The ultimate goal.LRRH: Then for the same reason I would remove the wish goal.Tanya: I don't think that this reason or argument is helpful to the exercise.Zoey: I thought you would just want to finish the exercise so we could continue what we have been doing. XDTanya: I see. Tanya: I would remove the maintenance goals because they would be done regardless. So remove Cleaning, Fixing, and dealing with board games and LEGO.Casey: That is so not true. The board games are not going anywhere.Sasha: And the LEGOs are not going anywhere.Tanya: They are not going anywhere because they are not important to deal with. So it is still okay to remove them as goals.Sasha: That I agree.
๐ 6. Remove 7 more
๐ฏSasha: In this round we remove 7 more.
Evelyn: I think explore more ways to spread peace is covered by spreading peace.LRRH: StarTree please add the Beach Towel to guild log then remove it from the lsit.StarTree: Done!Casey: I guess remove the item search quest.Ledia: I would make goal #23 "make a cute website that is a peacemaking version of troubleshooting notes." then remove goal #2Evelyn: Then I would combine goal #3 with goal #23 also: "make a cute website that records happy moments and is a peacemaking version of troubleshooting notes."Ivy: You can combine with #9 similarly. "make a cute website that records happy moments, implements quest society, and is a peacemaking version of troubleshooting notes."Tanya: I doubt that this is helpful.LRRH: I think it is helpful. Maybe we should have combined all of them into one long sentence.Zoey: But I would remove #11 because it would sound so obsessed if we put "finish Mice & Mystics" as a guild goal. XD
๐ 7. Remove 3 more

This is Magic Bakery plays Mice & Mystics, Chapter 3: The Grapes of Rats
Zoey: We are playing it in RP for the story. We don't follow the official game rules. XD
๐ฏ Story Content Scanning
Zoey: @Cardinal please check what stories content is there and GM. XD
Cardinal: In this chapter the heroes return to the castle to find clues about the villain Vanestra. There are three pieces of information to get. The heroes win if they get at least 2 out of three.Cardinal: The game says the chapter is for four players where Maginos must be included. But I don't think it matters in our case.Zoey: I play Lily. XDCasey: I play Nez.Tanya: Maginos.Evelyn: Tilda.P4: Filch.Sasha: Collin.Ledia: if the number of heroes doesn't matter, does it mean I can join as my own mouse character?Cardinal: Yes.Zoey: XDLedia: Then I will be Ledia, an Adventurer mouse from Barksburg.Sylvia: I play as Sylvia, a bard at the Barksburg tavern.LRRH: I play Red the Baker mouse. I am trying to get flour from the castle.Zoey: It went full D&D XDTanya: We have nine players. Should we split up into three groups?Zoey: Let's start with the story briefing first. XD
๐ฏ The Grapes of Rats
Cardinal: After rescuing Lily, and a well rest, the heroes mice discussed their next step to return to the castle for information about Vanestra.
Sasha: Collin spoke out loud what everyone must have thought about but afraid to ask, "If Vanestra merely planned to take over the kingdom, why didn't she kill my dad after she got married?Cardinal: At that, Tilda and Nez cried in shock.Tanya: "That is the fortunate truth," says Maginos, "It seems that her plan requires the King to be alive. That means we still have a chance to stop her, if we know her designs."Cardinal: With that, Collin proposed to return to the castle to find clues. Lily is the first to join, as she feels indebt to the heroes for saving her.Cardinal: Filch reluctantly joined, saying that Barksburg had nothing worth stealing.Cardinal: Heroes, you may make your entrance at anytime. The stages in this chapter includes the kitchen tunnel, the dining hall, and the crystal tunnel.LRRH: Red the baker heard that the heroes are returning to the caslte and wished to tag along, "We are running low on flour, may I tag along?"Casey: Nez see the tiny mouse and said, "Don't worry, we will sure get some for you. The caslte is not safe for kids."LRRH: Red gives Nez a long list of ingredients, including several types of different flour that Nez had no idea how to tell the difference.Casey: Nez throws a glance at Tilda. "We can't bring a kid to the castle. I'm not wrong, right?"Evelyn: ๐ Ledia: "I'm sure that it will be fine," says Ledia the adventurer, "I'll tag along as her bodyguard." Ledia shows her greatsword with confidence.Sylvia: "I would like to get some wine as well," says Sylvia. She shows her knives, "I'm going regardless. It is better if we know of each other's presence in advance."Tanya: An area I would like to revisit is the crystal tunnels where we found Lily. Before that would pass the tunnels under the kitchen and the dining hall. Our paths should be the same until we reach the dining hall.
๐ The Kitchen
Cardinal: The group fought its way through the kitchen tunnels, where they hear Maggie's cry again.
Cardinal: Heroes, please describe your actions.Tanya: I think we could clear the room like last time, but it would not be good to steal flours while Maggie is there. If we clear the kitchen, we should return after Maggie has left.Ledia: Could we lure Maggie out of the kitchen?Casey: How do you plan to do that?Ledia: I could take something important, such as her keys, then she would have to chase me.Cardinal: Ledia please roll two dice.Ledia: โโCardinal: Amid the chaos, the heroes poke their little heads to see the frantic Maggie trying to expel two Elite Rat Warriors from the kitchen countertop. They also notice a set of keys on a chair. Cardinal: The entire group of mice cannot enter the kitchen at once. The first five mice please describe your actions.Ledia: I go for the keys, make sure that Maggie notice me after I get the keys, and dashes out of the kitchen.Evelyn: Tilda casts protect without going out herself.P4: Filch pops out to fight the Elite Rats.Zoey: Lily goes up to fight and spot the ingredients.Sasha: Collin goes up to fight and block the bloom as needed.Sylvia: Sylvia also goes up to fight and spot for ingredients.Cardinal: Those who go up roll two dice please.Ledia: โโP4: โโZoey: โโSasha: โโSylvia: โโCardinal: โโโโโCardinal: "MICE!" Maggie screamed as she sees more mice coming out of a crack on the floor and stomp her bloom at them. Absolute chaos ensured. Ledia reached the keys, but had a hard time getting Maggie's attention as she swings at all the mice. The heroes do not have an upper hand. Cardinal: If the other four mice are coming out, now is your chance to break the stalemate.Evelyn: Tilda thinks Maggie might recognize her and goes out to cast divine seal. She intends to lure Maggie out of the kitchen with Ledia.Tanya: Maginos decides to add some magical firepower to tip the scale.Casey: Nez plans to throw Red onto the shelves to make it quick and fight off the remaining rats.LRRH: Red knows exactly what she needs and tells Nez where to throw her.Cardinal: Roll two dice each please. Evelyn with advantage.Evelyn: โโTanya: โโCasey: โโLRRH: โโCardinal: โโโโCardinal: Maggie noticed the mice had stolen her keys and left the kitchen chasing them. Nez throws Red onto the shelves. With Maggie gone, the heroes clearly gain the upper hand, until a furry paw slapps Maginos and Nez across the floor. It was Brodie, the castle cat with a scar on her right eye.LRRH: I use catnip from my bag.Cardinal: Roll three dice for placement please.LRRH: โโโLittle Red Riding Hood is recognized for the skill Magic Basket rank C.Cardinal: Red turned out to be more resourceful than anyone expected. At the smell of catnip, Brodie rolled on the floor in absolute enjoyment, giving the heroes plenty of time to finish their gathering and return to the tunnel.Tanya: At the tunnel, the group hides the load to be retrieved on the way back.
๐ป Dining Hall
Cardinal: The main group and the decoy group arrived at the dining hall at the opposite corners. In the middle of the dining hall was an unreal scene of drunken rat warriors feasting and gambling. A group of gambling rats are complaining about all sorts of things. They didn't like Vanestra being so bossy and the difficult orders she gave them.
Cardinal: โโโโโโโ โโCardinal: The drunken rat warriors have not noticed the heroes. Please describe what you would like to do.Sylvia: I play hypnotic song so the rat warriors would answer whatever we ask.P4: If that works, Filch will get his third knife.Sasha: Collin looks for an opportunity to take the rat warrior's gear for disguise, since they still have places to go and not every rat warriors will be drunk.Zoey: Lily takes an advantageous position in case things go south.Ledia: I guard the key and signal Maginos to come check what key I got.Tanya: I go check the keys. But if Sylvia's song works, I ask questions first.Casey: I mingle with the drunk rats and get a drink myself.LRRH: I give some catnip to Tilda.Evelyn: I stay back and catch my breath from running. ๐ I think we should return Maggie's keys. ๐Cardinal: Everyone rolls two dice, Sylvia with advantage.Sylvia: โโโCardinal: Sylvia please keep rolling until you get a minus.Sylvia: โP4: โโSasha: โโZoey: โโLedia: โโTanya: โโCasey: โโLRRH: โโEvelyn: โโCardinal: โโโโโโโโโCardinal: Sylvia's music got the rat warriors singing, dancing and drinking. They were so drunk and merry they would answer any question truthfully. The group learns that the Captain Vurst was on a special mission for Vanestra to look for a magical tome that that Vanestra feared would reveal a vulnerable secret of her.Sylvia is recognized for the skill Hypnotic Song rank A.Cardinal: In the dancing, Filch did not find a knife he would want, while Nez got himself a little too drunk playing dice with the rat warriors.Cardinal: By the time Maginos goes check the keys, a group of patrol rat warrior notices the heroes in the mix. But before they could sound the alarm, Lily shot them from above.Cardinal: Maginos identified that the keys were for the Alchemist Chamber. Tanya: It wasn't clear whether the Vanestra had already gotten the tome, we should check the alchemist chamber.Cardinal: Maginos believes that the hallway to the Alchemist Chamber will probably be patrolled.Tanya: "When we rescued Lily, I noticed that a path from the tunnel to the Alchemist Chamber. Let's take that route." Says Maginos. "And for the key, let's make a copy instead of keeping this one. Ledia: Ledia traces the key on her greatsword. We can make the key once we return.Zoey: Keyblade. XD
๐ฎ Crystal Tunnel
Cardinal: The hero mice left the key for Maggie to find, and headed to the Crystal Tunnel where Lily was found.
Cardinal: As the group enter the crystal tunnel, Filch has a horrific vision where Vanestra let an army of fire-breathing mechanical beasts blasting a distant elf city of Nextor.P4: Filch tells the group his vision.Sasha: Is this vision about the future or the past? I think the last time we got a vision, it was about the past.Tanya: It is not clear.Cardinal: The group is below the Alchemist Chamber. They can tell that the chamber is occupied with at least 5 rat warriors, among them, was the voice of Captain Vurst.Ledia: Nine versus five. Cardinal: Heroes, please decide which five will go up first.Ledia: Ledia says if she goes first she can cast blinding light, which could buy some time for Tilda to cast slow and rogue types to get into advantageous positions.Sasha: That makes the first wave Ledia, Filch, Tilda, Lily, and Collin.Evelyn: I don't think I need line of sight to cast slow, so Sylvia can be in first wave.LRRH: I help Nez sober up.Casey: I am big. I can't be that drunk.Cardinal: First wave plus Tilda, roll two dice please. Ledia with advantage.Ledia: โโโP4: โโZoey: โโSylvia: โโSasha: โโEvelyn: โโCardinal: โโโโโ
โ๏ธ Alchemist Chamber
Cardinal: Ledia casts blinding light and KO's the first Elite Warrior. Filch KO's the second. Lily shot the third. Captain Vurst swung at Sylvia and Collin blocked the hit, but only partially. The slow spell seems to have little effect on Captain Vurst.
Collin is down to two HP.Cardinal: "The prince is mine!" says Captain Vurst, as the fourth Elite Warrior calls for more warriors from the hallway.Tanya: Maginos casts ice wall to block reinforcements.LRRH: Red sobers up Nez.Evelyn: Tilda casts protect.Casey: Nez goes up to join the fight.Cardinal: Two dice each please.Tanya: โโLRRH: โโEvelyn: โโCasey: โโCardinal: โโโโCardinal: Captain Vurst threw knives at Maginos, interrupting his casting. Nez takes a hit blocking the patrols joining the fight.Maginos and Nez lost protect.Ledia: I concentrate on the captain.Zoey: I use barrage at the reinforcement or true shot at the captain depending on the situation.P4: I also focus on the captain.Sylvia: On the captain.Sasha: Captain.Tanya: I blast away at the incoming.Evelyn: I cast haste on the heroes.LRRH: I look for the magical tome.Casey: I keep the incoming at length for Maginos to blast them.Cardinal: Evelyn roll three dice for placement please.Evelyn: โโโEvelyn is now recognized for Haste Rank B.Cardinal: Everyone else roll three dice please.Ledia: โโโP4: โโโSasha: โโโSylvia: โโโZoey: โโโCasey: โโโTanya: โโโLRRH: โโโCardinal: โโโโโโโโโ
โ๏ธ Captain Vurst
โ๏ธCardinal: Captain Vurst was no match for the hasten heroes, while Maginos blasts the reinforcement that did not flee as they see Captain Vurst defeated.
Cardinal: Even in defeat, the Captain laughs at the heroes attempt, "What can you, mere mice hope to accomplish against her mighty Majesty? The beast is almost complete for war. Your family banner will soon fly at Nextor, breaking the peace your father worked so hard for."Tanya: "That can explain why Vanestra had not bothered to kill King Andon, But why such an elaborate ruse to cause a war?"Cardinal: "That's all you will get from me," says Vurst. "Once you are caught, we will a lot more from you." With that, Captain Vurst throws a small bag from his waist at Maginos.Ledia: I deflect the bag with my sword.Zoey: Why is he not tied down? XD I stop him from trying to escape.Sasha: Lily's attempt to stop the escaping Vurst was stopped by Collin. "Let him go. He was my father's friend once and gave my family years of loyal service. He has given us more than he meant to and now we know what our next steps should be."Sasha: (( That was from the story book. I don't know what the next steps should be. ))Chapter 3 is complete.Tanya: Now we know that Nextor has not been attacked yet. But the magical tome is not in the alchemist chamber.Cardinal: The next chapter continues from this moment, with the players splitting into two teams.Ledia: In the story, Ledia doesn't know that Collin is a prince. But she heard Captain Vurst call Collin the prince and refered to the King as his father. So I take it that Collin being the prince is not a secret?Tanya: Lily knows that Collin is the prince.Ledia: Is that still a secret to Barksburg in general?Tanya: I would think so. Let's assume so.Sasha: Let's say Collin handled confidential information properly. So Ledia, Red, and Sylvia know just as much as Lily.Ledia: But that means Lily knows that prince Collin was human, and they have been stealing from his castle.Zoey: It sounds like a plot hole. XDLRRH: There is no plot hole. I think everyone could just assume that Vanestra is another mouse.Evelyn: Cute! ๐Cardinal: The next chapter involves going to the King's bed chamber.Ledia: Will Lily be surprised that the King is human?Cardinal: She will not be.Leda: Well?Zoey: Ledia broke the suspension of disbelief. XDCardinal: Ledia roll for placement, starting with three dice please.Ledia: โโโโโโโLedia is recognized for the skill Spell Breaker Rank SSS.StarTree: Ledia already has that skill registered!Cardinal: Now it has a rank.Ledia: Legit.Zoey: It seems too easy to get Rank SSS skill during placement. XDLedia: I'm more interested to know the difference between Rank S and Rank SSS. Rank S means it works withing rolling a die. What would Rank SS or Rank SSS mean?Tanya: I think that could mean nullification to disadvantages. So Rank SSS can withstand two disadvantages and still work without rolling a die.Ledia: Reasonable.Tanya: Maginos notices that Ledia sees the mystery. "There are still many questions we don't know the answers," Maginos admits.LRRH: "But this means we are not really stealing anything, since this is your castle." says Red.Sylvia: "I think it can go both ways," says Sylvia, "You may start as a mouse and become human, or start as a human and become a mouse."LRRH: "If Prince Collin becomes human, could you just feed us?" asks Red.Ledia: Ledia watches Collin skeptically, knowing how human would normally threat mice.Sasha: I would consider you of equal status and Barksburg its own autonomy. We would allow trading but not stealing.Ledia: It sounds fair, but what would humans possible want to trade with mice? There won't be equal status unless the mce become humans. Ledia thinks to herself.Zoey: It got deep. XD

A man was at a carnival and went to a booth where a carny said to him, โIf I write your exact weight on this piece of paper, then you have to give me $100, but if I cannot, I will pay you $100.โ The man saw no scale near the booth so he agrees, thinking he'll lie to the carny either way about his weight.

There is a basket with five hats. Three are white and two are black. Tom, Tim, and Jim, each take a hat out of the basket and put it on their heads without seeing the hat they selected or the hats the other men selected. The men arrange themselves so Tom can see Tim and Jim's hats, Tim can see Jim's hat, and Jim can't see anyone's hat. Tom is asked what color his hat is and he says he doesn't know. Tim is asked the same question, and he also doesn't know. Finally, Jim is asked the question, and he does know. What color is his hat?
{"cmd":"url","url":"https://www.rd.com/article/long-riddles/","desc":"[Source]"}
Show Answer
The hat is white. If Tom doesn't know his hat color then the other two men's hats cannot be both black otherwise he would know his hat is white. When Tim doesn't know his hat color either, that means Jim's hat could not be black otherwise Tim would have to know his hat was white based on Tom's answer.

A butcher routinely cheats customers by pressing down on the scale when weighing a turkey. But one time a customer's order forced the butcher to admit his cheating. How?
Show Answer
The customer asked for a turkey. The butcher weighed it, but the customer wanted a heavier one. It just so happens that that was the last turkey, so the cheating butcher put that turkey under the counter, and brought back up the same turkey and pressed the scale *even more*. Satisfied that this turkey is heavier, the customer said, "I'll take both!"
Base Rate Fallacy is a logical fallacy where the wrong conclusion is drawn from wrong comparison.
๐ Example: Hospitalization
FACT: Among the 100 hospitalized patients, 70 were vaccinated, and 30 were unvaccinated.
Conclusion using Base Rate Fallacy: The vaccine is not working because more hospitalized patients were vaccinated.
Without using Base Rate Fallacy: The total number vaccinated and unvaccinated persons need to be obtained. For example, if 1000 people are vaccinated, and 100 people are unvaccinated, then the result is 0.7% of vaccinated people versus 30% of unvaccinated people are hospitalized.
๐งฉ Self-Check Puzzle
A town has only two colors of cars: 80% are blue, 20% are green. A traffic camera is known to capture the correctly 80% of the time. One day a car runs a red light and the camera identifies the car to be green. What is the chance that the car is actually green?
๐๏ธ Show Answer
When the camera says that the car is green, that could be due to the camera saw a green and judged correctly, or that the camera saw a blue car but misjudged. Therefore, given 100 cars, the camera would judge 16 green cars correctly, and misjudge 16 blue cars incorrectly as a green car. The result is that of the 32 cars that the camera judges to be green, only 16 of them are actually green. The camera is only correct 50% of the time when it says the car is green.
For blue cars: the camera judges 64 blue cars correctly, and misjudges 4 green cars incorrectly as blue. As a result, the camera is correct 94% of the time if it judges that the car is blue.
There is quest to relocate roll call. Where should it go?
๐ฏ Roll Call Relocation
StarTree: There is quest to relocate roll call. Where should it go?
Ivy: I think roll call doesn't need its own side panel tab. It could be a link within the Bakers tab.Tanya: I think that roll call looks too similar to Bakers to be displayed in the same tab.Sasha: I like the trumpet icon better than the happy face.Evelyn: I think it can be a section in Scoreboard.Black: I think Roll Call can be its own section below Scoreboard, but make roll call all caps. Bakers can be section inside About.StarTree: StarTree moved it up below Scoreboard.Zoey: I swear that was where Roll Call was originally XDZoey: It was not in All Caps because we moved it above Bakers.Tanya: I think we don't really need to change anything. It doesn't bother me that the side panel is long. I think we can close that quest.StarTree: @Vivi requested that Roll Call be part of Bakers back in February.Vivi: Could you make the profile section of Bakers collapsible?StarTree: Done!Black: I suggest changing the tab name from Bakers to ROLL CALL then replace the ROLL CALL section.StarTree: Done!Vivi: In that case make profiles section closed by default, and change the roll call icon to a clipboard.StarTree: Done!Vivi: Eventually Profiles can be part of Index or Scoreboard. Entries on Scoreboard should have a link to the profile.Ledia: That can come after each member has a profile node.Roll call section relocation quest is complete.

Crystalization is a writing / content creation method what starts with focusing on quantity, then refine and organize the content into a presentation.
Stage 1: Quantity
In this stage the author focus on collecting information and ideas. As they are collected, the author observes patterns and sort the information in groups. The grouping prompts the author to collect more data for lacking groups.
Stage 2: Structure
In this stage the author refines the structure so that new piece of information can be logically categorized. The structure is stable when the author seldomly needs to make new group or ponder which group a piece of information belongs.
Stage 3: Presentation
A stable struture allows the author to present each group in a logical order. In each group, the author can pick the most impactful argument or data.
Stage 4: Quality
In the final stage, the author focuses on details such as the quality of the writing and the aesthetics.
A Charter City is a city with its own rules defined at its conception. Charter cities are compatible with freedom of association and societal structures such as Quest Society and Hospitalianism described in this website.
๐ฐ The Purpose of Charter Cities
Charter Cities support highest ranking of peace paradigm by letting regroup and live in a dream city of their choice. By defining the style and way of life in the charter, a charter city can specify and preserve the overall theme and atmosphere for ages. As a close analogy, a charter city can be compared to a themed hotel as big as a city.
โญ Starting a city
Based on Gaia world concepts, each person has a share of the world resources. To start a city, a person would draft the charter and get enough endorsers to cover the area needed for the city. With that, the founders develops the area into their city.
โญ Joining and Leaving
The city is allowed to continually occupy its space as long as it maintains enough endorsers. A healthy charter city would have a waitlist for people wanting to join, or unused endorsement for its expansion. If a charter city uses more space than endorsement it has, it would be on a course to be downsized. At that point, the city could downsize to keep the same specifications of its charter, or change the charter to attrack more endorsers to keep its size.
Evelyn: If I make a suggestion it would be about Chapter 15 again. ๐ 3B: That's okay if there is no other suggestion or follow up.Evelyn: How about a redraw of the Arcacia and Red picture? It would clear a quest in the guild log.3B: Okay.That's a hard picture to draw.
This is the Red and Arcacian drawing... What do you think?

I also like the old expression more. Vivi: The old one has a better focus. It doesn't need to show Arcacia's legs.3B: It is easier to erase what you don't need than to add more later.3B: I think I will draft from scratch.Sasha: Couldn't you just continue from the old draft?3B: I did. I did the line based on the old draft. I drew on a layer above it.Sasha: But Arcacia's face look quite different. Both faces look different.3B: I don't know why. I'll try again adding line from the old draft.Vivi: I think in the old draft Arcacia's arm is too small.3B: I had a hard time telling what is what when I tried to line from the old draft. This time I will split the draft first so I can show each by itself.This is a hard picture to draw.
This is the Red and Arcacian drawing... Redrafted. What should be changed before the next step?

I didn't feel like tracking down the mischief file and reexport them individually...3B: Then I traced different parts of the original draft in different layers and different color. I made Arcacia's head shorter, and defined her dress a little better.3B: To have a similar quality as Mira Mira title page, I needed a background. So I made a forest background.๐๏ธ3B: The redraft with draft color: {"cmd":"url","url":"https://github.com/MagicBakery/Images/blob/main/KT_19%20(20230809)%20LRRH%20&%20Arcacia%2002.png?raw=true","desc":"[link]"}3B: Since there are many lines, I needed paint to block the draft lines for the lower layers. Since I need to paint anyway I thought I might as well paint with the correct color. 3B: What you see here has an additional white mask to see the draft lines better.Amelia: It looks good.Evelyn: I think both Red and Arcacia look better in this draft. ๐Vivi: Centering is slightly off. Everything on the round mat should shift to the left. And make Red's cloak flare out more to the left.Zoey: I am just looking forward to the final drawing. XDSasha: What is the next step?3B: The next step is the proper outline. It will have clean outline good for the coloring book section.3B: But if there is something to fix, as Vivi suggested, then it should be done now before the outline.3B: This would be a good time to fix anything related to proportions and composition.Sasha: I want to see the draft but with brown outline or outline that is just a bit darker than the color.3B: Okay.Black: I think the pretzel could be lower. The dimension of this picture is not 6x4 but 5x4.3B: If I use this as a manga title page, the sides can be trimmed.Vivi: Arcacia's left elbow should be more to the left, and her right elbow should be behind her apron.3B: I think the pose is more correct as is. Try holding your hands together like you are praying, then shift your hands to your right. Both of your elbows are still in front of you, but your right elbow would be lower than your left elbow.Ledia: Interesting.Ledia: I would want to see a draft that shows which lines are hidden...๐๏ธ3B: Slightly updated: {"cmd":"url","url":"https://github.com/MagicBakery/Images/blob/main/KT_19%20(20230810)%20LRRH%20&%20Arcacia.png?raw=true","desc":"[link]"}Is there anything else to change?

There are two lingering quests and I want to do at least one of them. Actually make it three. Let's do one of them today.
Sasha: The choices are: 1) Reset escape room games; 2) Murder Mystery; 3) Try another game.Sasha: If there is no strong reason to do one over the other, let's roll the dice.
Evelyn: Let's reset the escape room games so they can be replayed.Sasha: There are two to reset. I'll be happy if we reset one.
๐ฐ๏ธ Reset: Werewolf Experiment
Sasha: This is a quest to reset the escape room board game: the Werewolf Experiment. There is a chance that the set is not complete.
StarTree: This set includes a printout of the reset instruction!Sasha: I did that. The first step says I need to print and cut replacement papers so I gave up.StarTree:{"cmd":"url","url":"https://shop.mattel.com/products/escape-room-in-a-box-the-werewolf-experiment-fjr43","desc":"[Instruction]"}Evelyn: Do we need to print everything? It seems that some of the PDF content is already in the box.Sasha: Which one is missing?Evelyn: Pages: 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, ...Casey: The "used" ones are just written on with pencil. Couldn't you just erase them?Evelyn: Yes ๐Evelyn: Erasing leaves the page with some white marks. I think that is okay.Casey: You could erase more and make the whole area lighter.Evelyn: It is working! ๐Evelyn: The crossword puzzle page doesn't erase completely. But I think it is okay because the clues weren't very difficult.Casey: You could write on it with more letters then erase.Evelyn: I am learning something very interesting.Evelyn: Nothing needs to be reprinted.Evelyn: The set is missing a key to open a padlock and the notepad where the key is hidden. So I made something equivalent. ๐The escape room game is reset.Sasha: Nice! Should we reset the other escape room also?Evelyn: Okay. ๐
๐ฐ๏ธ Reset: Flashblack
Sasha: This is for reseting the escape room board game Flashback. We don't know if the content is complete.
StarTree:{"cmd":"url","url":"https://shop.mattel.com/pages/escape-room-in-a-box-repacking-instructions","desc":"[Reset instructions]"}Evelyn: For this set, someone wrote some answers using ballpoint pen. ๐Evelyn: The reset instruction does not include the combination lock numbers to check the contents. ๐StarTree: The combinations are in the answers book! Answers Spoilers next:StarTree: Purple lock: LTC. Red lock: 752. Blue lock 1: Octagon, diamond, cross. Blue lock 2: 451.Evelyn: There are about 10 pages to reprint. Otherwise the set is complete.Evelyn: Slightly cleaned the printer head because it is missing some lines when printing in black.Evelyn: Printed and cut the pages.The escape room game is reset.Casey and Evelyn are recognized for the skill Hide Tracks.Evelyn is recognized for the skill Restoration.
This is the Red and Arcacian drawing... I did the flat coloring, then went ahead and did the overlay coloring...
๐๏ธ3B: Colored: {"cmd":"url","url":"https://github.com/MagicBakery/Images/blob/main/KT_19%20(20230813)%20LRRH%20&%20Arcacia%20Dark.png?raw=true","desc":"[link]"}๐๏ธ3B: Colored, brightened: {"cmd":"url","url":"https://github.com/MagicBakery/Images/blob/main/KT_19%20(20230813)%20LRRH%20&%20Arcacia.png?raw=true","desc":"[link]"}Zoey: Nice! XDEvelyn: I prefer the one that is not brightened.Vivi: What is the dark spot between next to their hands?3B: It is an error. I'll fix it.Vivi: It is strange when one of the tree branches happen to align with the pretzel.3B: I will fix that too.3B: By the way my pen is kind of broken. I will try another pen.Sasha: The faces are good for avatars. Not that they need new avatars.3B: The dark spot is not an error. It is the tree in the background. Should I make that part a yellow sky?Vivi: I think it will look better if that part is the sky.3B: Okay.3B: Updated and cleaned up some lines for the tree trunks.LRRH: Isn't this poster worthy?Tanya: I would say yes.Evelyn: This picture was originally for better self of the carrot cake recipe.LRRH: StarTree please add to chapter 11.StarTree: Done! It is added to the last step because there is only one picture!Vivi: The line is slightly too long on Arcacia's left eye.3B: Updated.Sasha: This picture is not as detailed as the one for Mira Mira.3B: I changed the template so that I could edit each layer better, but now the drawing uses more RAM. This picture takes about 2GB of ram to edit.3B: The Mira Mira drawing doesn't have a separable background. Sasha: Could you make a manga cut where the picture fits in the manga frame?๐จ3B: Manga Trim: {"cmd":"url","url":"https://github.com/MagicBakery/Images/blob/main/KT_19%20(20230813)%20LRRH%20&%20Arcacia%20Manga.png?raw=true","desc":"[link]"}Sasha: Okay.

Gaia: Nice drawing.3B: The composition is not as good as Mira Mira.Evelyn: I think it is good for its context.3B: I can still make changes. But I think we can start thinking what to draw next.3B thanks all for the inputs.
This is for the Mystery in a Box game Quarantine.
Sasha: In this game you get a box with reports and newspaper articles, and the goal is to find the murderer
๐ฏ About
Sasha: This is a play once only murder mystery game. It comes with a pile of documents about the case. Unlike 221B Baker Street, there is no clue "to get". All information is already in the pile.
Sasha: Is this game playable on the channel? We have a stack of these games.Black: I think this type of game has too much reading.Sasha: I think the person who chooses the document type can summarize what they find, like how we played NCIS.Tanya: How many documents are there?Sasha: There are: 1) Starting briefing, 2) Assignment, 3) Forensic report on the syringe, 4) 911 call record, 5) Patient record, 6) Autopsy report, 7) Patient photo, 8) Detective report (4 pages), 9) floorplan, 10) Suspect photos and profiles x8, 11) Airplane ticket, 12) newspaper (8 pages).Tanya: Is this going to be an exercise of identifying what information is relevant?Sasha: Yes, because much of the information would be irrelevant. But if we ask a player to choose a page and summarize, they won't know what is relevant.Tanya: I think then you would make all documents available, and each player takes turn making a discovery or posing a theory. Then we vote on the theories and reveal.Sasha: Then do we summarize what is on each document?Tanya: We can make a section for each document type, but only make notes of information that seems relevant.Sasha: Okay. This seems doable. Then I will start with the Summary of the Assignment. I am going to skip the "start" introduction because that is more about the game itself, which you could read.
๐จ Assignment Letter
Sasha: In the quarantine facility of the city, a patient was murdered. Magic Detectives are called to:
a: Trace the transmission of the virus to figure out who was infected by whom;
b: Identify the killer;
c: Uncover the motive for the murder.
Sasha: The public and media have not been informed about the murder
Sasha: Now the game starts. You are free to browse the content and we will summarize the findings in the following sections.Ledia: In NCIS, the person who reads a clue may define the theme and make changes to the clue. Does that apply here?Sasha: Yes, except now others can see the original clue, so there could be more than one entry, or re-entry on the same clue.Casey: Are we going to limit ourselves to only a number clues like in 221B?Sasha: I think these games are sufficiently harder so that we don't need to do that. We could guess wrong even if we read everything.
๐๏ธ 8/3: John Arrested
Natalie: John becomes a resident of the city jail after being arrested for illegal distribution of controlled substance during a sting operation.
โ๏ธ 8/4: Barfight 911 Record
Black: At 11:07pm, a bar fight was reported between Alex and Ben. Ben was found lying on the floor and was pronounced dead by the time officials arrived. According to the bartender, both were drunk and started fighting. Alex hit Ben. Ben fell and hit his head on the floor and never woke up. The victim's girlfriend Leslie was at the bar. She was transported to the police station and was released 3 hours later without charges.
P4: Alex was then released on bail with ankle monitor to an apartment owned by his father.
๐๏ธ 8/17: Room 17 (John in Coma)
LRRH: The patient in Room 17 fell into a coma and eventually dies on Aug 26 at 11:41am
LRRH: It is not clear who was in Room 17. The floorplan doesn't show patient names.Tanya: I think that is part of what we need to figure out.Zoey: Got the room assignment list from the investigation file. XD. They are: 15: Samara | 16: Jamie | 17: John | 18: Alex | 19: Donovan | 20: Lisa | 21: Marc
๐ฌ 8/18: Airport
LRRH: Samara was at the airport having returned from Chicago. She will then return to her home at the Millennium Tower, where Jamie has been taking care of her cat Socks. She plans to take Jamie for lunch by the new sushi place by the courthouse.
๐Mikela: According to Jenn's Facebook post {"cmd":"url","url":"https://www.facebook.com/jennmoodyinFC/","desc":"[link]"}, she saw Lisa slapping a guy in a suit at the airport after yelling at him.
44: From the newspaper: Samara dropped her water bottle at the airport. Then Don picked it up for her.
Natalie: According to witness Robert at the airport, the murder victim, Donovan, collapsed there while travelling with another man. The other man looked scared and quickly walked away. The witness Robert described that the other man is in mid-30's, white, with brown hair, short reddish-brown beard. He was wearing a suit and black glasses. The witness also said the other man had want seems to be razor burn on his neck, and dark circles under his eyes.
Amelia: From the patient photos, it seems the other man is Marc, who also wears suit, glasses, has red brownish hair and beard stubs, and dark below his eyes.Tanya: This plane ticket was found in the victim's suit pocket when he collapsed at the airport. It is an unused first class plane ticket of the victim to leave the city on 8/18 at 2:12pm. Among his belongings were also his wallet with driver's license, two credit cards, and $220 in cash.
๐ฃ 8/19: Court Hearing
LRRH: Samara attended a court hearing when she was already feeling unwell.
Black: 11am: Alex's hearing at the court house.
Zoey: 11am: Leslie charged at the defendant and scratched the defendant and his attorney's neck and elbowed the attorney. The attorney was nose bleeding.
Zoey: Samara was already sick. So I think Alex and Leslie got the virus from Samara.Natalie: John attended a courtroom hearing at 1:30pm and complained that there was blood on is chair. The judge told him to ignore it and sit down.
๐ฃ๏ธ 8/19: Lisa Sick
Kisaragi: Lisa works as a policy aide for the Major. She called in sick today. She stayed home where she lived alone.
๐ฃ๏ธ 8/20: Leslie Sick
Black: Leslie is Ben's 27-yo girlfriend. They lived together in an apartment until Ben died during the barfight.
๐ฃ๏ธ 8/20: John Sick
Natalie: After attending the court hearing the day before, John started complaining to jail guards that he felt sick, and he was moved to an isolation cell in jail.
๐ 8/20: Samara Quarantined
LRRH: Samara's mother called for help and she was transferred to quarantine.
๐ 8/21: Facility 3
James: A private facility "Facility 3" is designated as a quarantine facility. {"cmd":"url","url":"http://www.quarantine-alert.com/","desc":"[link]"}James: Connecting the dots from Newspaper: Facility 3 most likely belongs to Archon Genomics (CEO Robert). The facility is called the Arcane Foundry, and is headed by Dr. Grace.
๐ 8/21?: Lisa Quarantined
Kisaragi: The mayor insisted that Lisa calls for help. She was transferred to quarantine.
๐ 8/22: John Quarantined
Natalie: John was examined by a doctor in jail and was transferred immediately to quarantine.
๐ 8/23: Jamie Quarantined
P4: Jamie is a 60 yo working at a real estate company. She was transferred from her apartment in the Millennium tower to quarantine after she called 911 herself that she had high fever and couldn't breathe.

Black: Leslie started coughing up blood. Her caretaker and neighbor called for help and Leslie is transfered to quarantine.
Zoey: Leslie was kept in observation in the contaminated workroom, that is room 27.
โ๏ธ 8/23: Lisa Attacks
Kisaragi: Lisa was forcibly admitted to quarantine. That night at 1:02am, Lisa got up from her bed and pulled out her IV's. She ran down the wallway toward the clinic and attacked the patient in the room next to hers. She was restrained by the staff. The patient she attacked suffered only minor injuries.
Kisaragi: I think the floorplan means that Lisa's room number is one bigger than the patient she attacked. The room numbers are 15 to 21. Lisa is not in room 15 or 17. Someone else was already in Room 17.Zoey: According to the room assignment on the investigation file, Lisa was in Room 20, so she attacked the murder victim Donovan in Room 19.
๐ 8/24: Alex Quarantined
P4: Alex called 911 because he felt very sick. He was evaluated and quarantined.
๐ 8/24: Marc Quarantined
James: Marc called 911 by himself and was transferred to quarantine from the Andover Building where he lived alone.
Amelia: On the newspaper, Marc seems to be posing for an article on Archon Genomics.
๐ 8/25: Syringe
Ivy: A syringe that is unaccounted at the facility's inventory was found discarded on the hallway floor. The needle of the syringe was missing. There is no chemical or blood found inside the syringe.
StarTree: StarTree lifted a partial fingerprint on the syringe!
๐ 8/25: Cypher Note
Tanya: A crumpled cypher note was found in the waste bin near the contaminated staging area.

AUTHORIZATION IS GRANTED FOR YOU TO TAKE ALL NECESSARY MEASURES TO PREVENT DISCLOSURE.Zoey: XDZoey: Supposedly Marc is the other person, so he also entered quarantine to kill Donovan.Tanya: I think it is still possible that the murderer is someone other than the patients. The surveillance report mentioned three cameras: Loading bay, entrance vestibute, and the airlock. But the floorplan shows that the clean workroom #10 has its own entrance. Staff could enter any room without going through the airlock room #13.Sasha: Looks like we have contesting theories, but let's keep discussions at the end after going through all the clues.
๐ 8/25: Autopsy Report
Evelyn: The male victim died of respiratory failure. Air bubbles were found in his brain. Puncture holes on his thigh suggest that the murdered injected air to the artery there. The vitals monitor alerted the staff at 11:07pm on August 25. The staff tried to save them but the victim was pronounced dead by 11:19pm.
โ ๏ธ 8/26: Leslie Dies
LRRH: Leslie dies at 10:37am.
LRRH: The patient at Room 17 dies at 11:41 am.
๐ 8/26: Surveillance Footage
Zoey: There was no camera for the hallway or interior of the facility, but the cameras at the entraces show no one other than facility staff entering or exiting. All staff members wear full protective suit entering and exiting. The gloves, boots and hoods are built-in to the suit.
Zoey: I think this is the game's way of telling us that the murderer is one of the other patients.
โ ๏ธ 8/??: Amanda Dies
LRRH: Leslie's caretaker Amanda dies of same symptoms at her apartment.
๐ 8/??: Rumors
Mikela: There is a link to a conspiracy article that says Archon Genomics might be researching biological weapons for the government.
๐๏ธ Detective Theories
Sasha: The sections above are all the clues. Here we list our guesses on how the virus spread, who the murderer was, and the motive.
Tanya: Based on the cypher message, Patient Zero should be Don, the murder victim. He would have passed it to Marc. At the airport, Lisa got the infection from snapping one of them, and Samara also got infected for being at the airport. The next day at the courthouse, Leslie and Alex got infected from Samara in the morning, then John got it from the chair. Last was Jamie who got infected from Alex. I think Jamie is Alex's mother.Zoey: Also from the message, it seems that the director of Arcane Foundry gave Marc the go to kill Don to prevent him from telling others about the project.Ledia: So the man in suit that Lisa attacked at the airport and also in quarantine is Don, isn't it?Tanya: I think it doesn't matter to the case.Black: I think Jamie did not get the virus from Alex, she got it from Samara when they met for lunch near the courhouse.Tanya: Good catch.Sasha: So far we have this sequence: Don, Marc, Lisa (Airport), Samara (Airport), Leslie (Courthouse), Alex (Courthouse), John (Courthouse), Jamie (Lunch)Ledia: Why did Marc go to the airport? It doesn't seem that he knew he was sick.Tanya: I think Don didn't know that he was sick. I think he was taking a flight to meet with someone who might be interest in the project. Marc might not be flying with him, but to see him off.Ledia: That is a strange arrangement.Black: I think they would be in the same flight, but once Marc saw that Don fell sick, Marc realized he himself probably got he virus and fled.Sasha: It seems that no one has a strong opposing theory, so for the three questions, you either choose Yes or No. If you get at least two right, you win. Anyone who gets all three correct gets the crown.Ledia: I think there is something we got wrong, but not one of these questions.Black: No one else has a clear tie to the project or to Don. Lisa, who attacked Don was restrained at the scene. She wouldn't have time to hide the needle. The cipher note was found near room #21 where Marc was.Zoey: I think we could be wrong on the infection sequence.Evelyn: Does Don work for Arcane Foundry? We only know that Marc works there. Maybe Don was a visitor at Archon Genomics, he was on a flight back home. So Marc was just sending him off at the airport.Ledia: If that is the case it would be strange for Don and Marc not going to airport together. One know that Lisa drove one of them to the airport.Evelyn: Is it strange to not meet at the airport? ๐ Black: We know that Lisa attacked Don, so Lisa probably drove Don to the airport. Marc could have met Don separately.Ledia: I think in that case the order of infection could be Don, Lisa, Marc, Samara, Leslie, Alex, John, Jamie. We don't know whether Samara got it from Don, Lisa, or Marc.Evelyn: I think Lisa, Marc, and Samara all got it from Don, because I don't think Lisa and Marc could become infectious themselves right after contracting the virus.Ledia: Then for the first question I would vote No. I think Lisa got the virus before Marc, since Lisa was in the same car with Don.Evelyn: I think so too.Zoey: Why did Lisa slap Don? She drove him to the airport.Ledia: That is a mystery.Zoey: I am switching to Ledia's sequence.Sasha: I also think Ledia's sequence is more probable.LRRH: If Don does not work for Archon Genomics, Don doesn't have a chance to get the virus unless through someone who works there. That would mean Don got it from Marc, but Marc is not patient zero. Therefore Don works for Archon Genomics.Tanya: That was a loose proof by contradiction.Kisaragi: I think Tanya's order is correct because the witness said Marc had rashes around his neck. Marc was already infected before going to the airport. But Don's symptoms were more severe, so Don was patient zero.Evelyn: Kisa is right. I'm switching to Tanya's sequence ๐Ledia: There are more than one way for the order to be wrong but only one way to be right.Zoey: I don't want to think so much XDSasha: Since we are voting, unless vote you don't get a win or a loss.LRRH: I think Tanya is right.Casey: I think the last two questions are a given, so it is at least a win. Ivy: Same.P4: Same.James: Same.Natalie: Same.StarTree: Wee~!Mikela: Will the crowd be right this time?Infection order: Don, Marc, Lisa (Airport), Samara (Airport), Leslie (Courthouse), Alex (Courthouse), John (Courthouse), Jamie (Lunch)
Yes: Tanya, Black, Kisaragi, Evelyn, LRRH, Casey, Ivy, P4, James, Natalie, StarTree, Mikela
No: Ledia, Zoey, Sasha
Murderer: Marc
Yes: Tanya, Ledia, Black, Zoey, Evelyn, Sasha, Kisaragi, LRRH, Casey, Ivy, P4, James, Natalie, StarTree, Mikela
No:Motive: To hide the project.
Yes: Tanya, Ledia, Black, Zoey, Evelyn, Sasha, Kisaragi, LRRH, Casey, Ivy, P4, James, Natalie, StarTree, Mikela
No:Sasha: There is no drumroll section. So next is the solution!
๐๏ธ SOLUTION
Sasha: The majority is not correct! The solution has this order:
Infection Order: Don, Lisa (Airport), Marco (Airport), Samara (Airport), Jamie (Cat pick up), Leslie (Courthouse), Alex (Courthouse), John (Courthouse)
Sasha: The solution is as Ledia said, that Marc got the virus at the airport. The other difference is that Jamie got infected when Samara picked up her cat back.Sasha: The murderer was Marc and the motive is as we guessed. However, we missing a few things from the pile of documents.
Sasha: There was a note on the newspaper to contact Mr. X. That website no longer works. But the content of the website contains a photo ID of Donovan as a scientist at Archon Genomics, and 8 fingerprint samples from the patients. If we had that information, we could have matched the partial fingerprint to that of Marc.Sasha: Another thing we missed was that there was a coded message on an Archon Genomics advertisement on the Newspaper: TGG GTG CTC TGG GTA TCC CTT CGG TGC GTA CGT TCA B CTT CTT TTA TGA CTC GCT TAC TAA TTG CGA TGG CTT CTA The solution says that it translates to:Sasha: "The threat is terminated."Sasha: Congratulations to all for winning and to Ledia, Zoey, and myself for getting all three true/false choices right!Natalie: The solution page has a copyright notice that says it cannot be reproduced in any form.Sasha: But we are playing it, not selling it. We are not posting the content for others to see.Natalie: I think it is questionable.Sasha: This is from a different publisher that says hosting the game for profit is a violation. It doesn't say it is a violation if you are just playing with friends. {"cmd":"url","url":"http://www.quarantine-alert.com/","desc":"[link]"} "Hosting our games for profit without our consent is a violation of international Copyright law. If you plan to make a profit on our games &/or host them publicly, you must have a commercial/multi-use license."Natalie: I think it depends on the publisher.Sasha: But the game is not meant to be only a solo game. If we were physically together we would all be reading the content.Sasha: This is another publisher that only says you need to get a business license if you want to run the game with the public or for profit, or use it as a company event, or as a fundrasier. {"cmd":"url","url":"https://nightofmystery.com/faq/","desc":"[link]"}Natalie: I think it depends on the publisher. In that link it says that you need a business license even if you run it for team building for your company or non-profit.Sasha: Magic Bakery is neither a company nor a non-profit.Natalie: I think it depends on the publisher.Evelyn: I think this should be a question to the publisher.LRRH: Does the problem exist only if we post the playthrough online?Tanya: I think posting is irrelevant. It is about sharing the game to let "others" play.LRRH: But the game can definitely be played as a group, so the only difference is "what is a group that is ok"?Zoey: The question is, "Can the game be played on zoom with friends?"Natalie: The copyright notice on the solution is, "ยฉ Copyright, 2019, TMEC, LLC, All Rights Reserved. No part or portion of the contents of our mystery experiences including but not limited to physical components, online content, or multimedia content may be resold, reproduced, duplicated, or transmitted in any form without our pior written permission."Tanya: I would agree that this game could not have been run according to that copyright wording.Sasha: But it could have been run if we were all sitting together, agreed?Tanya: Yes. But even if we played in person, it wouldn't cover showing a playthrough in writing online. That means we cannot post this game run.Sasha: What if we make this section private?Tanya: The point was you couldn't have taken a picture of the content for it to be played online even in private.Sasha: But you don't see the copyright notice until you see the solution.Tanya: The Start Here page has an "All Rights Reserve." note, but not the detailed one on the solution.LRRH: I don't like it when we have a session we can't show.Ledia: You could just show it and wait to see if the company sues you.LRRH: Personally I would be okay with that compromise if we don't post more of these.Sasha: What a waste.Evelyn: We can still play it in person.Sasha: But if we can't talk about it, what is the point?Casey: What if you play in-person then transform the content when you post it?Sasha: I think that is too much work, because it would be like playing the game twice. Once you have played it, the transforming part will be boring and somewhat pointless.Evelyn: What if you give the game content to Cardinal, and we play the game like an RPG? We will tell Cardinal what we try to do, and Cardinal tells us the respond. Then we are playing it without reading the source material.Natalie: This is from a different publisher that disallows live-streaming or recording of a play session. {"cmd":"url","url":"https://www.mymysteryparty.com/commercial-license-virtual-use/","desc":"[link]"} Even if TMEC does not list such a violation in their license, if you don't know what their license is, you should assume that permission is not granted.Tanya: I side with Natalie on that stance. Even if you play it in person in private, it is questionable whether you should write down the playthrough.Evelyn: I think if we play it through Cardinal, the content would be substantially transformed.Tanya: That depends on how much Cardinal transforms it.LRRH: In that situation, should we or should we not mention that the game is based on the original? If we mention it, It could make people not want to buy the game. If we don't mention it, it would not help people who want to buy the actual game.Casey: Actually, wouldn't the same rule apply to 221B Baker Street and Mice & Mystics? Could we have recorded the gameplay?Sasha: People post playthrough videos online.Casey: Doesn't mean that it is legal. By Natalie's assumption we can't post those games.Tanya: I would say this form of activity is not really compatible with the guild, unless the game material is already free online.Evelyn: What happens if we play them through Cardinal with sufficient changes?Tanya: Cardinal would have to change the cyphers. For that effort I think we would better be posting about us solving real problems than to solve transformed puzzles to avoid copyright infringement.Sasha: Suppose we are playing Quarantine in person. What could we have posted about our experience of playing it?Tanya: I think the intent of the publisher is for us not to give away the puzzle or the solution. That means you can't discuss the details of the puzzle or the solution.Ledia: Then there is hardly anything left to post.Tanya: You just have to find free games or games that let you post.Sasha: This is somewhat disastrous. We can't post memories of playing board games we already have.Black: You can still play it, then post about your fond memories about playing it.Sasha: Retelling is not the same as viewing the actual record.LRRH: I am learning toward suspending all direct gameplay of commercial board games unless it is sufficiently transformed and played through Cardinal.Evelyn: Would our record fall under educational fair use, if we focus on how we approach the puzzle from an education standpoint? {"cmd":"url","url":"https://www.copyright.gov/fair-use/","desc":"[link]"}Evelyn: I think the part where Tanya solved the cipher was educational because she was showing us how to start with some pattern, then make guesses to see if the remaining message would make sense. I would not want to have that part erased from record. ๐Tanya: I don't think this is an educational fair use because we are still playing it as a game; we care if we are correct; and to do so we are using all of the original material, instead of, say, just showing how to decypher a message by itself without the context of the game. {"cmd":"url","url":"https://copyright.universityofcalifornia.edu/use/fair-use.html","desc":"[link]"}Sasha: But for logical/critical/lateral thinking education, why would you take and focus on just a part? The entire context matters.Tanya: You would still run into the problem of the source material being a copyrighted work of fiction. No one would have a problem if the source material is not copyrighted.Evelyn: I think we can find public domain source material.Zoey: Or can ChatGPT make public domain source material. XDStarTree: ChatGPT says what it makes is not automatically considered to be in public domain, but belongs to OpenAI!Zoey: Cardinal that is. XDLRRH: Once Cardinal transforms the content, it would become original work, and there would be no issue.Tanya: But the changes should be more significant than just changing the characters' names.LRRH: Yes.Sasha: Okay. Could we end with a review about the game? What do you like? What do you dislike?
Evelyn: The game told us to create a timeline. I think that is important and we did well when we summarized in a timeline format. The timestamps from the clue documents were everywhere so we need to take a clue apart and list individual events on the timeline.Zoey: I think the cipher told us too much information, that constituted two-thirds of the answer.Tanya: The game did not explain why Lisa slapped Don and was still mad at him in quarantine. The game also did not explain why Marc didn't do better hidding the murder. Where was the removed needle? Why leave the syringe in the hallway? Why leave the cypher note?Tanya: And why would the director tell Marc, who is also sick to do the murder when there is a path where another healthy person could have inflitrated and do the job without leaving any evidence behind?Ledia: Maybe the director doesn't want more people to know, and threatened Marc that if he doesn't follow the order he won't get the secret treatment for the virus.Black: When I was playing it I gave up on the cipher. I tried shifting the letters but quickly found that wouldn't work.Tanya: When that didn't work I imagined that it was random substitution. I started looking for patterns, especially for the pattern "evv". But there were still too many other character to guess. Then I noticed the longer repeated pattern. I first imagine that the longer pattern ended with "ing", but that did not work. So I tried "tion" and it worked.Sasha: There is one more cipher about the DNA sequence.Tanya: I don't feel like working on that given that we know the answer and the questionable copyright issue.Sasha: If the original does not disclose the how it is deciphered, then our explanation is original work.Ledia: Compelling.Zoey: So I found a codon chart such as this: {"cmd":"url","url":"https://www.researchgate.net/figure/The-genetic-code-table_fig1_267946831","desc":"[link]"} If we follow that we get:Zoey: wvlwvslrcvrsblll[end]lay[end]lrwllZoey: I don't see how that translates to the message in the solution "the threat is terminlated"Tanya: If you don't count the "b", the two have the same number of characters.Zoey: But nothing that would give you three of the same character in a roll.Tanya: Let's first substitute from the solution and see what happens: w is T, v is H, l is E:Tanya: THETHsErcvrsbEEE#Eay#ErTEETanya: Assume s is R, r is A:Tanya: THETHREAcvARbEEE#Eay#EATEETanya: It doesn't work. Either we are using the chart wrong, the cypher was wrong, or it is more complex to decode.Sasha: Based on the solution, shouldn't the last code be GAT or GAC to result in a D?Tanya: But it says complex. There might be another rule.Ivy: Those are DNA codons, what if you first get the pairing? A pairs with T. C pairs with GTanya: I see.Zoey: It works! Leave it to the scientist! XDTanya: For the record, the paired sequence is this:Tanya: ACC(T) CAC(H) GAG(E) ACC(T) CAT(H) AGG(R) GAA(E) GCC(A) ACG(T) CAT(H) GCA(A) AGT(S) (B) GAA(E) GAA(E) AAT(N) ACT(T) GAG(E) CGA(R) ATG(M) ATT(I) AAC(N) GCT(A) ACC(T) GAA(E) GAT(D)Tanya: "The threat has been terminated". Not "the threat is terminated". The official FAQ did tell us to expect typos. {"cmd":"url","url":"https://www.mysteryexperiencescompany.com/about","desc":"[link]"}Ledia: The B was a clue since the codon chart does not include a B.Sasha: I think Tanya and Ivy should be recognized for deciper skill.Tanya and Ivy are recognized for the skill Code Breaker.Natalie is recognized for the skill Call for Justice.Sasha: I think this is a good place to stop, after leaving nothing unanswered.
Sasha thanks all for playing! Let's make this even more educational next time!
The board game node has an objective to deal with the board games. Let's take the next step.
Zoey: It has been a year since we last talked about this. OMG XDSasha: And it is still managable. There is nothing wrong with my stash.Zoey: I think the number increased, and there wasn't really any progress in getting people to borrow board games.
๐ก NextDoor Posting
๐Black: There was no interest in the initial 10 games that I posted, and I I don't think i should just bump the post.
Black: I think if the list is posted on Nextdoor, it should be in its own group. A list or a link to the list can be maintained there, and a link to the group can be added to the help map.Casey: Let's start with the offer list by marking the ones others may borrow.Black: I marked about 100, about 60 of them I marked as available. There are still 47 left to locate/decide. But I think we have a ilst to post and see if there is any interest.Casey: Let's post that first and discuss the rest.Black: Okay I made the post.Sasha: I think the list should be a Google sheet, because you can't include links properly in a Nextdoor post.Tanya: You can't properly search from the NextDoor post. You need a Google sheet.Black: How about let's wait and see if there is any interest? NextDoor doesn't have that much traffic.Tanya: I think we could promote the borrowing with a physical poster at where manga pages are posted.Sasha: Yes.Black: Let's wait and see if there is any demand. If there is too much demand from NextDoor alone, then there is no point promoting it further. So let's wait and see if there is no demand from NextDoor.Tanya: I see.
๐งน Tidying
Casey: Let's tidy the board game section(s) to make more room.
Evelyn: We made space. ๐Sasha: What do you need so much space for?Casey: It can be for any number of things.Zoey: LEGO? XDCasey: I'm thinking about it.Evelyn: We still have unopened sets. ๐ Casey: I kind of want the Eldorado Fortress. It is another pirate theme set. {"cmd":"url","url":"https://www.lego.com/en-us/product/eldorado-fortress-10320","desc":"[link]"}Evelyn: It is cute. But. ๐ Casey: Let's do the next step for the board games first.
๐ What board games to let go
Casey: Let's talk about what board games we can let go instead of just hoping someone would want to borrow.
Sasha: I don't think there is a good reason to just let them go unless you are totally out of space.Casey: I am pretty sure there are games that you wouldn't miss if it is gone.Sasha: Are we playing that game again? You pick a pile of LEGO to let go, then I pick a board game to let go. In the end we both lose. What is the point?Sasha: Instead of worrying about what game to let go, let's focus on playing all of them.Black: There are games on the list listed as "unavailable" for someone to borrow because we want to play them first.Evelyn: We still have Mice & Mystics. I think it will take at least half a year to finish that and the expansion.Sasha: Then let's get on it!Casey: I want to update the node, so let's at least go around and talk about what kind of game you won't play. Or games you think we shouldn't keep.Evelyn: I think that should mainly be the decision of the person who owns the game. StarTree: None of the board games belong to Evelyn!Casey: I think we should still talk about it to give Sasha some idea on what we don't need.Black: I think we don't tend to play abstract or geometric games.LRRH: I don't play games that involve lying.Evelyn: I think we talked about this before, that we don't play war games.Ledia: We don't play competitive games in general.Zoey: I think we don't want to play games that need many components, or take a long time to set up.Sasha: Deck building games. Zoey: Games with complicated rules. XDBlack: Finished marking which games are available to be borrowed: 74/151.LRRH: I think the guild shouldn't spend a lot of them juggling or sharing things. We should be making new things.Tanya: Agreed.Black: I think the original motive of collecting board games was to study them in order to make our own. But with Quest Society we don't really need yet another game, so we could say we study games to upgrade Quest Society.Tanya: Then it is almost all about art assets using existing games as references.LRRH: I don't have a problem with making entertaining or education games that are not part of quests to get things done.Tanya: We don't play spelling games.Casey: I think we have a good list.Sasha: Let's make some progress for Mice & Mystics!
We can do this!

This is Magic Bakery plays Mice & Mystics, Chapter 4: The Forging of the Beast
Sasha: We are playing it in RP for the story. We don't follow the official game rules.
Evelyn: Since the publisher only made the first chapter public, is there a problem if we talk about what happens in Chapter Four? ๐Sasha: There is already a playthrough on youtube... I know just because someone does it doesn't mean it is okay. But our blog isn't even searchable on Google. Cardinal, do your thing.Cardinal: Cardinal will summarize the situation, the players will come up with their dialogues.Casey: This is going to be hard.Sasha: Just be yourself.
๐ฏ Roll Call
๐ฏCardinal: This session continues from the last one where the nine players were in the Alchemist Chamber. Where Maginos sees that his tome with answers is missing. The mice then go to the king's chamber to check the king, while Nez worries that the Vanestra is building something at the forge.
Evelyn: Are there story moments in this chapter?Cardinal: The mice heroes will discover the status of the King, and see what Vanestra is building at the forge.Evelyn: Okay.
โ๏ธ King's Chamber
Cardinal: The hero and adventurer mice sneaked into the king's chamber, which has been infested by countless spiders. The king looks sick and lies motionless in bed with spiders crawling all over him.
Cardinal: Players please decide your action.Evelyn: Tilda checks if the King is poisoned and casts anti-poison on the King to make him immune.Tanya: Maginos gives mana to Evelyn to cast that spell.Sylvia: I ask Collin for a song that could wake up the king, if we are supposed to wake up the king.Sasha: Collin tells Sylvia about the song that the former queen used to sing and kill spiders crawing on him.Zoey: Lily goes full barrage on the spiders around. XDP4: Filch kills spider around and check for anything special.Ledia: Should Vanestra know whether we are here? Ledia uses chain lightning on the spiders.Casey: We let the captain go, so Vanestra probably know that we are here. Nez has no idea how best to help the King, and hopes that the King wakes up, somehow breaks free from Vanestra's spell and command other humans in the castle to drive out Vanestra. In the meantime Nez fights the spiders.LRRH: Red collects some poison from the spider and leaves vinegar, mint, catnip, pepper, etc to drive away spiders.Cardinal: Everyone rolls two dice please.Evelyn: โโTanya: โโSylvia: โโSasha: โโZoey: โโP4: โโLedia: โโCasey: โโLRRH: โโCardinal: โโโ๐ฉCardinal: The hero mice defended the King as Tilda cast anti-poison and Sylvia played the late queen's favorite song, which had more effect in bring the rescuers in tears than waking up the King. Despite their combined power, Tilda's spell could only increase the King's resistance to poison for one day. Knowing no obvious way to wake up the King, the group decides to first investigate the forge and see what Vanestra is up to.
Cardinal: If anyone wants to say something to the King before leaving the chamber, now is the time.Sasha: Collin has been speaking to the King hoping to wake him up. Before leaving, Collin says, "Wake up, Father, everyone is waiting."P4: Filch goes to the other side of the King and asks, "Remember to give Filch treasures when you wake up."Zoey: XDCardinal: As the heroes move on to the forge, they learn two pieces of information:Cardinal: โโโโCardinal: First, the scent of peppermint was effective at driving out the spiders, but Red didn't have enough.Cardinal: Second, Lily ran out of arrows.Zoey: It's okay, I still have a knife. XDLittle Red Riding Hood obtained a vial of Spider Poison.
๐ Drain Pipe
Cardinal: To reach the Forge, the hero mice sneaked underground through the pipes. The gushing water below is likely to flush any hero who falls out the caslte.
Cardinal: Heroes, please describe how you approach the situation as you travel across the pipes above the rapid.Sasha: I think we should tie ourselves to each other. I think we have the fishing wire as party gear.Casey: I will be in the middle then.P4: Filch doesn't want to be tied up. He has his own ropes and just jumps to the pipes above swing around freely.Tanya: I walk in front of Nez. It is probably easier for him to catch me from falling.Evelyn: Tilda follows Nez.Sylvia: Sylvia follows Tilda.Ledia: Ledia follows SylviaSasha: I suppose Collin is in front.LRRH: Red goes second and put some spider web on her feet.Cardinal: Everyone roll one dice please in marching order.P4: Filch: โSasha: Collin: โLRRH: Red: โTanya: Maginos: โCasey: Nez: โEvelyn: Tilda: โSylvia: Sylvia: โZoey: Lily: โEvelyn: ๐Cardinal: โโโโโโโโโ๐ฉCardinal: As Filch swings arcobatically across, he sees the horror unfold as Nez slipped and started falling into the rapid.
Cardinal: Filch, Collin, Maginos, Tilda, and Lily, please describe your immediate reaction.P4: Filch throws a roped knife to cut the ropes holding Nez. Nez can grab that rope.Sasha: Collin hears the commotion and immediately crouches down to hug the pipe.Tanya: Maginos casts levitate on Nez.Evelyn: Tilda casts water breathing on the whole group.Zoey: Lily fires a hook rope to the pipe above as an anchor to hold her end of the party.Cardinal: Roll two dice please.P4: โโSasha: โโTanya: โโEvelyn: โโZoey: โโCardinal: Tanya please keep rolling until you get fail.Tanya: โโ๐ฉCardinal: Filch cut the rope holding Nez, but Nez couldn't grab his rope. The party sees Nez fall into the rapid water, only to rise up a few human yards behind when Maginos' levitate spell connected. Collin and Lily pull up the rest of the dangling party, and resumed the same formation, this time with Nez holding the two ends of the rope the rest of the way instead of tying them to himself.
Tanya is recognized for the magic Levitate Rank B.Evelyn is recognized for the magic Water Breathing Rank C.Casey: That was embarrassing.Ledia: Was it correct to cut the rope?P4: If it is not cut Collin and Lilly would need to lift six people.Ledia: After cutting, Collin is lifting Red and Maginos. Lily with her hook is holding Tilda, Sylvia, and myself.Tanya: I think either way would be fine after casting levitateCasey: Are we using the logic from Jumba You 202207101102|puzzle? We are mice, we can lift our own weight even when we can't as humans.Tanya: Maginos is not sure if Collin and Lily could have lifted everyone without levitate.Cardinal: As the party catches their breath, they can feel the warmth from the forge on the other side of the venting grill.
โ๏ธ The Forge
Cardinal: The hero mice carefully peek through the venting grill and see that a steam-powered mechanical beast is being constructed by rat workers with Captain Vurst as the overseer.
Cardinal: Heroes, please describe your action.Ledia: I think we should try to get the beast into an oven to be destroyed.Casey: if the mech requires an operator, maybe we can seize the control.Tanya: Should we know more about the beast before deciding what to do?Cardinal: The dice would decide whether your plan would work. Zoey: Then Lily finds something she can shoot and breaks the mech with trueshot. XDTanya: I see. Maginos hacks into the mech.Evelyn: I think the workers are overworked and especially suspectible to sleep. So Tilda casts sleep on the floor.P4: Filch hides to support whichever plan to make it work.Sylvia: Sylvia plays song of haste for the party.LRRH: Red brings food as a distraction.Sasha: Collin will support the plan that works.Cardinal: Everyone please roll two dice, and keep rolling until you get a minus.Zoey: Is this a competition? XDLedia: Melt the Mech: โโโโโCasey: Take the mech: โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ YES!!!!Zoey: OMG. XD. True Shot: โโโTanya: Hacking: โโโEvelyn: Sleep: โโโโP4: Support: โโโโSylvia: Haste: โโโLRRH: Distract: โโโSasha: Support: โโโโโ๐ฉCardinal: A tasty fragrant filled the room of hungry workers as they hammered away. Captain Vurst orders the workers to contiue as he exits the forge to check the source of the smell with dripping drool.
Cardinal: Meanwhile, the workers fall asleep under Tilda's sleep spell. Nez climbs the hook shot by Lily to the collar, where the operator of the Mech would sit. Cardinal: But instead of an operator, it was occupied by a strange glowing orb. Other than that, the operator seat was as familiar to Nez as he had prototyped. Cardinal: Nez, how would you like to do this?Casey: I toss the orb down to Maginos for him to decide what to do. While I confirm that the Mech can move and say, "Let's ride out of the castle!"Cardinal: โโโโCardinal: Maginos, as much as you are curious about the orb, you feel that it is unsafe to keep it because Vanestra can probably see you through it if that was a device meant to control the Mech.Tanya: I toss the orb into the forge fire.Cardinal: โโโCardinal: As the orb hits the molten metal, it evaporates with a painful scream in Vanestra's voice. The scream wakes up the whole floor of dumbfound workers. Sylvia micmics Vanestra's scream with her fiddle. As the terrified workers dash out of the forge, Red sneaks back to the forge from a side door. On the walls of and tables of the vacated forge were the design drawing of the Mech. Some were Nez's drawing, while some were new.Ledia: Should we just burn all of them?Tanya: I think we should take anything that could be related to any weakness of the new designs.Cardinal: As the mice heroes discuss what to do with the drawings, Collin sees Brodie the cat dashing toward the forge in the hallway.Chapter 4 is complete.Casey obtains the Mech.Casey is regconized for the skill Mech Design Rank SCasey is regconized for the skill Summon Mech Rank SCasey is regconized for the skill Universal Mech Operator Rank SSS.Sasha is recognized for the skill Sense Enemy Rank S.Sylvia is recognized for the skill Bardic Mimicry Rank B.LRRH is recognized for the skill Aromatics Rank B.Zoey: Cat vs Mech. XDEvelyn: That was a good game. ๐Ledia: I like the dice competition to decide which plan works, even though apparently my plan was in conflict with the winning plan and I didn't end up doing anything.Casey: 14 Pluses in a row!Cardinal: Ledia, you may pick a fire skill to rank up to Rank A.Ledia: Dragon Fire Rank A that can melt metal.Ledia is recognized for the skill Dragon Fire Rank A.Casey: The odds of 14 pluses in a row is 0.006% isn't it?Tanya: That is the odds of at least 14 pluses. Exactly 14 pluses is 1/(2^15) = 1/32768 = 0.003%Casey: Awesome!Sasha: Any comments on whether the way we play is okay?Evelyn: I wouldn't know since I don't know what the original story is. ๐ Zoey: I don't think it includes Nez taking the Mech. XDTanya: I don't think peppermint is in the actual game.Sasha: I think it is fine if we don't know what is in the actual game.Ledia: But does Evelyn want to know what the actual story is?Evelyn: I think right now is fine because we still return to the plot at the start of each chapter. In general I am more interested in the story we make than knowing the original story.P4: Nez almost didn't make it to the forge.Casey: I know!!!!Zoey: Dramatic triumph! XDEvelyn: I am happy that we ended up being able to all play together. ๐
StarTree tries to do something for GitHub Migration!
โญ Enabling Jquery
๐ฏStarTree: To enable Jquery, the GitHub website needs Jquery data. Should StarTree just copy the entire Archive1 and Archive2 for the test?
Black: I think that is fine for testing.StarTree: What should the GitHub site be able to do first when Jquery is enabled?Black: How about you make a second button next to the compass, so that when you click on it, it will query from GitHub archive instead of blogspot archive?Ivy: I think the first step should be letting index.html read the URL with the node id and query the node content. Then when your second button is clicked, the iframe can just load that address.StarTree: The top level iframe can load index.html itself but not the second level iframe!Black: I thought ultimately we don't want the GitHub site to use iframe. It should just load the content to its container.Ivy: Okay. Please do it the way Black said.StarTree: Roger! StarTree: Added Archive1 and 2. Adding a second button: ๐ง. Adding function: JQAdd., GetInputBoxValue, ArchiveSelect, BoardAdd, BoardFill.LRRH: Could you use the ๐ฃ icon for the new button?StarTree: Done!StarTree: Adding try catch to GuessContainerWidth at Blogspot. Encountered this issue: {"cmd":"url","url":"https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10752055/cross-origin-requests-are-only-supported-for-http-error-when-loading-a-local","desc":"[link]"}.

โญStarTree: There are too many function to check one by one so StarTree will copy all of them but put them in alphabetical order!
StarTree: StarTree gives up reordering the functions because there are about 300 of them!Black: I think it would be good to keep the new and old code in the same order so we could see the difference by using text compare.Black: If you reorder them you could reorder both of them using the compare software.StarTree: The comparison software doesn't allow editting due to an encoding error!StarTree: Should archive html be organized inside a "p" folder to keep the same directory struction as blogspot?Black: I am not sure. Is it easy to change?StarTree: It is easy to change!Black: Could you try without?StarTree: Roger!Two quests for GitHub Migration are complete.StarTree: What should be next? Index search or enable viewer URL?Black: I think enabling URL should be next because it is more important. It would allow the links to work, then I can post links to GitHub.StarTree: Roger!
Design something new that also works with old components.

StarTree is closing the scoreboard early to prepare for September. Is there anything you want to do before closing?
Evelyn: I think it is okay to close early.Sasha: What do you do with the score from this chat when you close early?StarTree: StarTree didn't think about that!Tanya: I have thought about another quest system where we just close a round whenever we finish the quests. Then, if we are ahead, we could complete more than 12 rounds in a year.Zoey: I would prefer the "vacation" time in each month after getting the checkmark for the month. XDEvelyn: I also think that the vacation time is more relaxing. More importantly, or at least for me, I have quests that wouldn't make sense doing more frequently than once a month.Casey: We need an overall quest map to show how close we are to overall goals. Clearing monthly quests is just routine maintenance.StarTree: StarTree decides tally will be done tomorrow!Black: The tally process is quite involved. Could it be simplified?StarTree: The steps for tallying are 202307150844|here!Evelyn: Which part takes the longest?StarTree: StarTree didn't time herself!Black: There is an undesirable issue where the tallying needs to be done within the first day of each month before the scores of the next month begins to be entered.StarTree: This happens because the scores are kept in a spreadsheet. The monthly stats are computed based on the current total compared to the total of the previous month, not based on a query of what happened within a given month!Ivy: If the scores are kept in a database then the report could just be generated on the fly.Casey: We need a quest map toward score keeping using a database.Sasha: I agree. And isn't that in your department?Casey: Isn't that part of @Board?Tanya: @Board has many quests already.Casey: Okay. Let's talk about what should be on a quest map.
๐บ๏ธ Quest Map
๐ฏCasey: This is an idea to represent steps toward a goal with RPG style quest maps. Let's try doing it for making the scorekeeping a database.
Casey: Someone needs to list the steps from where we are to where we want to be.Black: I understand how it works if the scores are stored in a database. But I think we can actually make it work with a spreadsheet.Black: For example, to tally the monthly daily quest stars, the current spreadsheet has formulas that get data from the "latest month" section.Black: Every month after tallying, the data in the "latest month" section is copied to an archive section, then the latest month section is cleared for the next month.Black: Alternative: The formulas that tally the stars read the data from a dedicated section just for that purpose. Then, when you want to tally, you just copy the data of whichever month you want to there.Black: With that you could do the tally after the first day of each month. There is no additional snapshot you need. When you tally you just choose which guild score columns to compare.Tanya: StarTree?StarTree: StarTree thinks that it will work!Vivi: StarTree please make a backup of the spreadsheet before modifying.StarTree: Done! Now creating the Tally section of CL...StarTree: The Guild Log tally formula has negative scores for this month! StarTree doesn't understand! The formula doesn't seem to have changed from last month!Black: The snapshots of the monthly Cardinal quest score are missing.StarTree: It is now fixed! But it means the star tally for April, May, and July were wrong. ๐ญBlack: With the new format they can be fixed too.StarTree: Spreadsheets are now updated! And records for April, May and July are fixed.StarTree: Updating the tally steps.Vivi: Please fix the format at the steps so that after hiding the card, there is no blank space on the right.StarTree: Done!August is Complete!
This is a discussion in the monthly self-evaluation series where we aim to create a rubric for each evaluation topic.
๐ [B4] Initiative
Black: Previously we said that this was about doing something beyond expectation. So far we have been tracking failures instead for the others. Would that work in this case?
Ledia: There are too many ways to fail if initiative means doing all quests.Evelyn: I think it should be more about doing a quest within our area, such as doing something more than what was expected.Tanya: That means we won't be tracking failures but extra credits.Black: Suppose you have an idea for extra credit but you don't do anything to make it happen, then it is a fail.Tanya: Arcacia has spoken.Black: We could track them like meetings. EXG for effort taken for extra credit. EXB for effort not taken.Evelyn: There is an idea of adding regression test to the checklist, but it has not been done yet. So that would be EXB.Tanya: I think there is a list of quests that we postproned, those would all be EXB.Tanya: StarTree please make a CAL quest to update EXB and EXG.StarTree: Done!Evelyn: It is not obvious which entry to mark as EXB so I made a new entry. When we tally we can change that to EXG if it is done.Black: I think that is good for this round. Three more to go.Self-Evaluation is complete for this month.
The law game continues.

[26] Proximate cause
Natalie: Ann is trying to kill Bob who is riding a horse. Ann misses, but in making his escape, Bob ran into and was struck and killed by an unepected rockfall. Is Ann considered a proximate cause of Bob's death?
Sasha: In Reciprocative justice, Ann would be guilty of murder regardless whether her shot missed because she pulled the trigger with the intention to kill. Now to determine if Ann is responsible for any damage that results from Bob's death, I think she is responsible if Bob could have avoided the rockfall if he wasn't trying to dodge the shot.Ledia: A person is liable for distracting someone resulting in harm regardless whether they intended for the harm to result. This is tort law.Natalie: The card says the rockfall is an independent, intervening and unforeseeable cause. So it goes into the case where Bob could not have avoid it even if Ann did not distract him.Ledia: I think this is a protential point of contest. In this case, Ann's action was lethal, so Bob was compelled to act in more careless ways. You said that Ann is not liable, but the deck might be missing the principle that says, "If Bob could have dodged it, then Ann would be liable."Tanya: In question 202308022006|[25], Ann was not liable for Bob's death if he was killed by Cid in the hospital, unless she intended him to be attacked like that. According to you, would you say Ann was also liable?Ledia: The question was whether Ann was guilty of the murder of Bob. In that case Ann was not guilty of murder because she shot Bob in the leg. But in Reciprocative Law, Ann is liable for Bob's life while he is in recovery. So Ann is liable for his death, but not as a murderer, and Cid is MORE liable for Bob's death and as a murderer.Tanya: What percentage would you say Ann is liable for Bob's death compared to Cid? And what principle would be used to determine that?Ledia: I could throw that question back at you as long as you agree that it is non-zero. The principle still in effect is that Ann caused Bob's inconvence, so Ann is liable for Bob's wellbeing during his recovery.Fina: Absolutely.Cardinal: Ann is liable for any advantage she created in putting Bob in harm's way.Sasha: It would make a lot of sense if Cid could only have rolled one die in the murder, but Bob being in the hospital gives Cid one or two extra dice. If you think of it that way, it seems possible to calculate the Tort portion of the damage. Cid is still 100% guilty for the murder, but the Tort part is discounted due to Ann's attack.Cardinal: It goes down to when Bob was hospitalized, Ann had an implicit responsibility to protect him. A hospital should have higher security than say a hotel or a library where people are expected to be able to move by themselves.Tanya: I agree that Ann's liability is non-zero, and am interested in the principles to compute Ann's liability on Bob's death.Cardinal: That is a matter of empirical statistics. "How much easier is it for Killer X to kill in condition A versus condition B."Zoey: It is an insurance company question. XDLedia: In other words, it is not based on principles. It is based on statistics. You could come up with rule of thumbs to estimate, but in Reciprocative Justice, liability can be retrospectively adjusted. Your guess is just a starting point.Tanya: Could we brainstorm some factors or the rules for such guideline? It seems that this is very close to what Cardinal needs to do to run games in general, because I don't think Cardinal has actual statistics to base on for assigning advantages.Cardinal: Assuming that it is a low security hospital, and the killer Cid is just an unskilled person with the intention to kill Bob, the advantages that Cid has are: 1) Opportunity to approach Bob without lock picking. 2) opporunity to stalk and observe when Bob is unattended/vulnerable. Without these advantages, Cid would roll one die (50%). With the advantages, Cid would roll three dice (87.5%). Ann would be responsible for the increase of 37.5%.Tanya: Then given that fact that the attack succeded, the liability of Ann would be 37.5%/(87.5%) = 42%Tanya: I think this result does not make sense. Cid should be more liable.Cardinal: The better the hospital is secure, and the better the Cid's original skill in killing, the more Cid would be responsible. If the hospital room has locked door, then Cid would not have the first advantage. If there is no waiting area or visitors are monitored, then Cid would not have the second advantage. Bob's leg was broken. But he was not unconscious. The hospital could have notified and required Bob's consent for Cid to visit. In that case there is no difference from Cid visiting Bob at home. Depending on the security measures of the hospital, Cid could get a disadvantage for trying to attack Bob at the hospital, even if Bob was at a disadvantage in self-defense due to his injury.Ledia: Suppose we don't talk about the hospital. Bob thinks that Cid is a friend and they regularly meet privately. If Cid wanted to kill Bob normally, Cid would roll one die. Now Bob is injured so Cid has one advantage and rolls two. Then Ann is 33% responsible for having INTENTIONALLY shot Bob in the leg even if she had no idea Cid wanted to kill Bob.Ledia: Does 33% make sense in this case?Tanya: No. I think in that case, the starting roll should not be 50%. It is not difficult to kill someone when you already have the opportunity to meet with them and they are not on guard. I would say the initial roll of Cid already has two advantages. He rolls three dice, and four if Bob was injured. So 6.25%/93.75% = 6.7% liable.Sasha: To me Tanya's context seems more realistic. But. What if Cid and Bob are strangers, but the advantage that Cid gets is that Cid is hospital staff? There is no way for Ann or anyone to foresee that Cid wanted to kill Bob. How much should Ann be responsible? Is 42% reasonable in that case? It still seems too high because it is rare for a hospital staff to want to kill a patient. Cardinal: That is where empirical statisitcs comes into play.Ledia: I think in that case we have to account for the intrinsic disadvantages / rarity. Let's imagine Cardinal is going to make a random NPC roll on whether a hospital staff wants to kill Bob, and the rarity of that is โญโญโญ, a chance of 1/8, then I suppose you multiply 42% by 1/8 and get about 5% responsiblity for Ann. I would say the rarity is probably much higher so Ann's responsibility would be practically zero.Tanya: I think that expectation is more correct.Black: So what happens in the case of rockfall? I would expect it to be very rare for someone just get hit by a rock and die.Sasha: That was why I said if Ann's shooting prevented Bob from dodging what he normally could. If not, Ann's action wasn't significant in Bob getting hit.Ledia: With the math we don't "care" if it is significant. The calculation gives a number. There is no threshold that says, "if the number is small we dismiss it."Ledia: If Bob was hit by lightning I would say Ann was not responsible at all.Sasha: I agree with that. We need to know if the causality is more like a lightning strike or distraction. If it is distraction, we know from RP that is a common reason to give an advantage. Anything that is worth giving an advantage is significant or relevant for liability.Ledia: I think "Relevant" is the correct word, not "significant."Sasha: My bad.Tanya: Say Ann and Bob were both voluntarily walking on a mine field before Ann started shooting at Bob. To dodge from Ann's bullet, Bob took a step to the right instead of the left, and a mine happened to be on the right. In that case I would say Ann's action was insignificant unless she knew where the mines were. Zoey: Ann better not let people know she is an oracle. XDSasha: How do Oracles not get blamed for people's misfortune? It seems really easy to accuse Oracle for murder. How would the law protect Oracles if Oracles are a thing?Tanya: It has more to do with whether the oracle uses their power to protect or to harm. You get a reputation of foreseeing danger so people may act to avoid them. Sasha: I'm okay with that answer.
[27] Poison
Ann tried to kill Bob with poison, but the poison wasn't enough to kill Bob. While Bob is in the hospital, the staff made a mistake and gave Bob a poison instead of the anidote, and Bob dies. Is Ann's poisoning a proximate cause of Bob's death?:Sasha: This seems like exactly what we have just discussed. The card is going to say Ann's act is not a proximate cause. My answer is Ann is guilty of murder because she gave Bob the poison. The Tort portion would hold Ann liable for Bob's death because that was her intented result anyway. The hospital staff would have a record of mistreatment, but would not be held liable for Bob's death because even if their mistake was the direct cause of Bob's death, in the chain of events they were serving as an unintended agent of Ann's murder. So Ann is still 100% liable for the damage.Tanya: I agree with Sasha's explanation. If you try to kill someone.Natalie: The card says the mistreatment is independent, intervening, and unforeseeable, so Ann's act is not a proximate cause. The card also says if the hospitable is known to mess up, then it is not unforeseeable and Ann could be held responsible.Tanya: The first part of the answer is a point of contest for justice. The card's law is too lenient on a murderer. What is the merit of such leniency?Ledia: If you separate the intention to kill and the action to kill, then you can kill someone with no one convicted of murder. Black: I would consider that a loophole favoring orgnized crime.Zoey: If you are rich and you can pull strings, then you can start the process and get away with murder. Easier.Sasha: In this case, we know that Ann tried to kill Bob. But just because Bob didn't die right there, Ann escaped tort liability. The only way for Ann not to escape liability is if Ann confessed of her murder attempt and to her reasonable and best effort tried to save Bob with treatment. But the best hospital just happened to mess up. If Ann hasn't confessed and cared for Bob's recovery, I would say Ann is still liable for the hospital's mess up, because one could argue that Ann is still praying for Bob to die.Evelyn: If Ann was remorseful, is she blameless for Bob's death?Sasha: I think that is the advantage argument. If there is 1% chance in general that the hospital can mess up, then Ann is still at least 1% liable. But that is compared to 100% liability if Ann wasn't remorseful and wishing that the hospital would screw up.Ledia: It is a totally different culture when society uses reciprocative justice. Evelyn: I don't think a murderer would wish someone well right after their attempt failed. Tanya: But if you know what the law will do, it will make you not want to commit murder in the first place. In the current law, Ann and other who want Bob to die could each create non-lethal advantages, hoping the combined effect is lethal for Bob. And all of them can get away with murder even if they openly confess that they wanted Bob to die, as long as each of them can show that Bob's actual cause of death is independent, intervening and unforseeable.Evelyn: Would the reciprocative laws make a rich person easier to convict people of murder when they survive each attempt?Ledia: The accused murderer would still have to have a motive and have done something, such as shooting at the rich person. And if the Rich person didn't actually die, the tort portion of his death would not be in effect.Evelyn: What do you get or lose if you are guilty of an attempted murder and the victim is not dead?Fina: They lose autonomy. The attacker is still liable for the loss in time and costs. That part isn't much different in attempted murder.Evelyn: I thought in reciprocative justice, if someone tries to kill you, it means that you may kill them in return even if they didn't succeed.Fina: That is if the declaration is still active. If the "attempted murderer" is already caught and is in custody, then you cannot do a preemptive strike in the name of self-defense. The attacker is already incapacitated. The declaration remains active until the hostility is resolved.Evelyn: What happens if the murderer does not admit hostility, but the jury reasonably believe that the murderer lied? Would the victim get a license to kill them?Fina: The victim, who is not dead, would get a license to kill the offender. And if the victim chooses to kill the offender, the victim is liable to the tort portion of the damage, unless there is evidence that the offender wanted to get away with the tort also.Evelyn: Wouldn't it make it easy for a rich person to falsely accuse someone of murder, kill them, and take everything they have?Fina: That can backfire because the actual victim (the poor person), can then rightfully kill the false accuser and take everything they have. The rich person has a lot more to lose than the poor person, so it is not worthwhile for the rich to have tried in the first place.Sasha: What about the poor trying to falsely accuse the rich to rob them then?Fina: The rich has bargain power to just resolve the false accusation out of court, and the rich has generally more means to keep records to show that its actions are just and innocent.Ledia: I think those are good answers. Reciprocative justice is not worse than the typical laws. The typical laws are worse.Tanya: Agreed.
Natalie thanks all for the inputs.

What is your philosophy's policy on applying pesticies?
Self-Defense within your zone
You can in general defend yourself against disease spreading vectors in a zone where you have autonomy. You may kill mosquitoes because they attack by sucking blood. You may not apply pesticide in zones where you don't have autonomy.
Pollution and Externality
The effect of your pesticide needs to be contained within your zone. In general, killing vectors by physical means is safer than chemical spraying. Your self-defense does not give you justification to kill other innocent creatures in the process.

What countermeasures does your society have against bomb threats?
Security Clearance
Hospitalian society has developed zoning and security clearance. This makes it generally more difficult to reach a target. People are in general not anonymous in a given opt-in zone.
Sasha: Then what happens if someone does call and say that there is bomb?Tanya: It is on the record, a quest starts to track the offender and to sweep the bomb. The point was since bomb threats are not probable, people don't make such threats.
Decentralized Response
Quest Society has a decentralized response. The first thing after a bomb threat is that a quest is created for the incident. Then questers self-assign to track, evacuate, and search and defuse. The main difference between a quest society's countermeasure and the status quo is that when such a quest happens, there are many times more trained questers to catch the culprit than the status quo society has. Since many people are involved in the response, the reciprocative liability to the offender is astronomical. (If 10000 people are inconveniented or responded to the threat for 1 hour each, the offender would be liable for at least 10000 hours of community service. That is more than 3 years of work hours to get back their normal citizen status.)

Let's play this book. In this node I want to record our story of playing it. If you want to play it yourself, please don't read it because it only contains transcript of what we think as we go through the puzzles. So it will just be all spoilers without the fun of playing it yourself.
This is a routine monthly status update for Cardinal Quest for September.
๐ฏStarTree: There are 5 open quests, 247 quest hours, 18 side quests, 0 prep quests, and 7 unresolved failures remaining!
Tanya: StarTree please update the counts. I think we can finish the countermeasure during the month.StarTree: Done!Tanya: And now for Failure Analysis. We will check the next TPK record.
2210 Sentry Circle Explosion
๐StarTree: The wrong base scroll was used. The magic circle blew up when it was activated. As a result, replacement crystals need to be sent. For countermeasure, the walkthrough checklist now has a check to confirm if the base scroll is correct.
StarTree: Black identified that the base scroll was wrong, and Vladanya marked it as TPK.Evelyn: I think the countermeasure can sufficiently prevent this from happening again.Tanya: There seems to be a pattern where we fail when we assume that the current quest is the same as something we had done before, but in fact it is not.Zoey: I think we would just have to accumulate experience to level up Evelyn's staff.Tanya: What if there is a staff that is already leveled up?Zoey: Until you find it that is all we have.Evelyn: I'm sorry. ๐P4: Evelyn's staff is very strong. It tells P4 where to go.Zoey: Yes, it let me just drop by and be able to do the next step. XDTanya: We shall keep upgrading it.
Tanya thanks all for questing.@Cardinal is now Rank B.
๐LRRH: If you look at the Pinned Quest Board, you can see that some of the chapters have double the quests but half of them remain untouched. I think the reason is that when a chapter has about 4 quests completed, it gets a checkmark, and people go on vacation mode.
LRRH: So, my idea is, why don't we split chapters that have too many quests?Tanya: Right now almost all chapters have the token quest "Layout update". If you add a new chapter, it would presummably also has that layout update quest. So you only get 3/4 of the effect. For each new chapter you add, you are adding 3 quest slots.Tanya: Whereas if you increase the bar from 4 quests to 5 quests for the checkmark, you would add 21 quest slots.Zoey: No. Don't. XDSasha: I don't think you should just change the ranking. If you want to do more you can always and already do more in your chapter. Making everyone do more is too much.LRRH: I think just adding a chapter is a good baby step or trial. I don't mind if it really only add three slots.Ledia: But wouldn't that divert the ranking for the chapters? For example, say Mira Mira has 9 slots. That means that IF they are all completed, Mira Mira would get Rank S9 or A9. That is higher rank than S5 and S4 if you split them. So as a chapter master, why would I want to split it?LRRH: I think that result is too competitive. I think maybe the ranking of each chapter should be based on Place Level. We should have a separate member ranking for the effort. Black: Isn't Place Level pretty much static from one month to another? You don't need to do anything to keep the same Place Level rank.LRRH: My idea might need more development. But I want to backfill chapter 0 to 10. Actually I was going to ask what chapter name should we use for chapter 0. Such as: @Zero, @Start, @Support, @Wild, etc.Zoey: It is already decided. XDEvelyn: Red already has two chapters: @Guild and @Wish. I think if Red doesn't mind splitting them she should be allowed to.Tanya: I thought it was Red's original rule that each person should only have one chapter. The original reason was that if everyone could just arbitrarily split what they want to do into multiple chapters, effort would be disproportionally spent on their chapters, and it would be unfair to those that didn't split.Tanya: And, instead of discussing whether to split or make more chapters, wouldn't it make more sense to just do the quests?LRRH: I didn't think much about breaking the rule. @Guild is kind of a common quest. It has to be there. My chapter is @Wish.Tanya: But now you are going to split them.LRRH: Actually what I was considering was spliting @Music or @Treasure. But now I also see that @Guild and @Wish has too many quests. My idea was that if we make Chapter Zero, then it would just be used to complete the overflow quests. Ledia: Again, why would you want to split if your chapter would get a higher rank if you didn't split them?LRRH: It is strange that chapter 0 to 10 are missing. I want to back fill them.Evelyn: I would also prefer to have them filled, but 30 chapters seems long on the quest board. ๐LRRH: I think people can get used to seeing it.Casey: @Zero sounds cool though.Black: The ranking is not an issue if Chapter Zero is used for a quest that is already completed in your chapter. For example, if you did the layout update quest in your chapter, you could do it again for Chapter Zero.Ledia: But what is the point of ranking up Chapter Zero when doing so would make it out rank your own chapter.Black: To get quests done.Evelyn: I think it is okay for a chapter master to voluntarily split their own chapter, and if another member who doesn't have a chapter is willing to head that new chapter then there is no conflict.Tanya: The most active members without a chapter are Sylvia, Vivi, Kisa, V, Skyle, Vladanya.Evelyn: I don't think we should pressure anyone to head a chapter. ๐ Tanya: I think monthly maintenance quests of a chapter should be grouped as one quest. For example, @Board quest for monthly tally has 20+ steps, but it is one quest.LRRH: If they are done differently or by different persons they should be separate quests. We are supposed to split quests into accessible pieces.Ledia: And by spliting them within the same chapter, you have the potential to rank higher.Black: I think the order of event is that if someone wants to do a quest in your chapter under their chapter, you can't object. So for example Vivi could take the Accounting quest and do it in her new chapter.Zoey: @Seed and @Skill only has three quests in the chapter at the moment. But I know @Seed still has 55 quests in the log. It doesn't mean @Seed is done.Tanya: In general, I think we should focus, prioritize, and reduce the number of quests shown on the quest board. Each chapter master should try to prioritize and plan so that the quests in the chapter can be completed. As opposed to making new chapters when they can't be completed.LRRH: What about quests that cannot be done in one sitting or quests that are recurring?Tanya: As I said I would group monthly recurring quests into one quest. For example, Monthly Backup, PC cleanup, and Accounting would be just one quest entry. If you are willing to split them up, then you wouldn't mind losing "rank" by combining them. The advantage of combining is that now the chapter MUST complete the other harder quests to rank up. You as the chapter master can make it happen by deciding how to group quests in your chapter.Ledia: I think that is better than splitting.LRRH: I don't want to combine them because they are not done by the same person.LRRH: Does anyone want to take some quests from @Guild and @Wish to form a new chapter? Or take them to your chapter?Sylvia: May I backfill a chapter to be @Tavern?LRRH: What would you like to do with that chapter?Evelyn: Each of the chapters has a theme related to peacemaking.Sylvia: The Tavern is where people gather and it has a quest board. The quest board has odd quests that tend to be neglected elsewhere. I plan to take quests that I can do.LRRH: Okay. I think you can take number 3, 9, or 33. Zoey: What happened to Chapter 32? XDLRRH: I think that is for Gaia.Tanya: Chapter 3 and 9 already have manga pages. I think they should be backfilled by a chapter with similar theme or concept.LRRH: Chapter 3 and 4 are very similar in content. Then Chapter 5 and 6 are similar, and chapter 9 and 10.Tanya: In my mind Hospitalianism could backfill Chapter 1, Motivation Chapter 2, Reciprocative Justice Chapter 3, Compassion Chapter 4, Education Chapter 5, Emergency Chapter 6, Planning Chapter 7, Quest Society Chapter 8, World Chapter 9, Alliance Chapter 10.Tanya: Tavern would be closest to Chapter 10 Alliance. But if Sylvia picks that she won't get a manga chapter specifically for the Tavern.Evelyn: I would want to see a Tavern manga. ๐Sylvia: Then I would take number 33. I will start with the quests Accounting, updating a node at @Manga to list Tanya's concept on what can backfill the chapters, and a quest to create the manga pages nodes for the old chapters.LRRH: @StarTree please add @Tavern to the tracking and quest board.StarTree: Updating Quest Board and Guild Log! Wee~~!Sylvia: I'll update the Manga node now.@Tavern is now Rank B.Evelyn: Congratulations! ๐คLedia: At some point @Tavern should have its own node and charter.Sylvia: For now I will just link it to this node.

What should I draw in September?
๐ฏ Suggestions
3B: What do you suggest I draw in this month? For July and August, the drawing ends up on the calendar. Should I draw manga page? A calendar scene? A banner? I am going to check later today, Please give some suggestions.
๐Fina: A manga page on how quest society works comparing to 202309070833|SB 553.
Fina: I am fine with using a manga page for the calendar.๐กEvelyn: A title page good for the calendar for Quest Society.
Evelyn: I think in general it is good to start with a title page. The title page can be used for the calendar, and for the node image. I think it is also like a graphical charter for the chapter.๐กLRRH: For future manga pages, could we not print the chapter and page number?
LRRH: I think we will reassign chapter numbers and page numbers. I think maybe we should backfill chapter 0 to 10, with existing chapter if it is relevant.Evelyn: A Quest Society chapter can be chapter 8.Ledia: In general if you revisit old work, it helps making progress.Sasha: Then what happens to the existing Chapter 8 content?LRRH: It could be a different module of chapter 8. If we don't show the chapter number and page number on the page itself, we could rearrange and present them in any order.๐กZoey: A beach scene. XD
Zoey: It is a little late for summer but where is the beach scene? XDSasha: Quest Society x beach scene?๐กP4: P4 wants a school scene for September.
Evelyn: Cute!! ๐Evelyn: I think a school scene would also be compatible with Quest Society.Tanya: If you do a school scene it would be better to use it for backfilling Chapter 5.Zoey: I do agree that a school scene is more appropriate, when can we get a summer scene for next year? XD๐กCasey: You could draw a store scene with a student helper doing a quest to help the store.
Evelyn: I think this is a great idea. ๐Tanya: What store would it be?Casey: An item shop?Sasha: If it is for quest society, why won't it be the Adventurers' Hall?Evelyn: I would prefer the Adventurers' hall because I want to see Ivy.Tanya: So should Chapter 20 become Chapter 8?LRRH: Let's not worry too much about what the chapter code will be and focus on what should be in the picture.Casey: If you draw the adventuers' hall you can't show the relevance to the bill topic that Fina talked about.Tanya: If it is a diagram you can show both: The quest center, and the place where questers go to do the quest.Sasha: We are missing a villain to show what the quest is about.Casey: The quest can be about building and repairing.Sasha: But Fina's bill is about shoplifting. We don't have a thief character.Tanya: I don't think we need to show the thief to show that the scene is dealing with a thief.Evelyn: I think the point of Quest Society is that people can get help so there won't be as many thieves.Sasha: But people steal things for their own gain. No one needs board games to live, but game shops still get burglarized.Evelyn: I think a big part of that is to get money for living. If the food store or item store normally doesn't take money then you won't need to steal from a game store to pay for food. You would steal from the food store directly. But if the food store gives free food then you won't need to steal at all.Tanya: I think Evelyn is imagining that in a properly functional quest society, the majority of the quests are not about crime. Zoey: Long live the lost pets quests! XDEvelyn: I think we can show returning a pet to a store owner. ๐Sasha: Isn't it somewhat illegal to "keep pets"? Aren't they considered prisoners?Evelyn: I think it depends on the pet. ๐ Tanya: That question can be a follow up manga picture to explore.๐กTanya: Returning lost pet to an owner in a store that has a quest board.
Casey: Then we can draw returning the canary to Sylvia at the Tavern.Zoey: P4 in school uniform in a bar. XDCasey: If you are good enough to solo quest you are good enough to go to bars.Tanya: The restriction on drinking shouldn't be about age, it should be about toxicity resistance. That means P4 can order drinks if she wants.Sasha: I think if you can show that juxtaposition it would count as intrigue -- something that sparks interest and make people think.Casey: And you can show that the canary is not in a cage.Zoey: Spot the differences from status quo. XDEvelyn: Fun. ๐
โ๏ธ Mental Draft
3B: I'm not sure how to decide among the suggestions. So I will describe how I picture each suggestion. Starting from the last one.
๐จ3B: [1] Canary Bar
3B: At eye level is the bar counter dividing the page top and bottom. 3B: On the top behind the counter is a fiddling Sylvia and the singing canary on the right side.3B: In front of the counter on the left side is P4 in school uniform on a barstool drinking something.3B: In the background on the left side is a small quest board where one of the quests is the completed quest of finding the lost canary.3B: In the foreground are three more P4's with quest maps and info spread on the floor discussing.๐จ3B: [2] Canary Quest
3B: An eye level counter divides the page top and bottom.3B: Top: Ivy behind the counter in front of a quest board looking at the scene in front of the counter.3B: Bottom: P4 on the left, Sylvia on the right, and Canary in the middle. Everyone is happy. Sylvia is kneeling or sitting on the floor so they are about the same height.๐จ3B: [3] School Clubs
3B: This is a start of school year where different society clubs are recruiting members.3B: In the foreground are students checking out the booths.3B: In the background are one or more club booths.3B: Everyone is in school uniform. The scene is set on Magic Academy campus.3B: This picture might be drawn in landscape instead of portrait.๐จ3B: [4] Beach Tea Party
3B: In the foreground are three goddess around a round table. On the table are tea and pastry.3B: In the background is the beach scene where at least Zoey is there.3B: By three goddess I meant the 202206090900|puzzle. In my mind they are Vivi on the left, Arcacia in the middle, and Patricia on the right.๐จ3B: [5] Beach Volleyball
3B: Beach volleyball scene viewing from above at an angle featuring Fina, Zoey, Natalie and James.3B: I haven't decided who is on which team.๐จ3B: [6] What is Quest Society?
3B: This is a manga page with the top title "What is Quest Society?"3B: The first panel is someone explaining that Quest Society reimburses those who help others for free.3B: The second panel shows an except of SB553 where a store is required to write report on violence they face. Ivy or someone makes the X sign to show that this is bad.3B: The third panel shows quests postings that are relevant: Get credits for protecting stores, training store staffs, help them document and investigate.3B: The four panel is merged with the third panel where P4 or someone takes the quest and go.
3B: The next step is to make some sketches. But here are more ideas. And, how should it be decided?
๐จ3B: [7] Augmented Quest
3B: This is a street scene where people can see quest tags through a map app or augmented reality. 3B: I had this idea after having idea [8] below.๐จ3B: [8] Quest Board
3B: This idea is similar to [2]. It shows the Adventurer's Hall quest board but without a counter, because the counter gets in the way of people checking the quests.3B: ( Then I thought about how in our world the quest board is actually online. And what we need is a way for people to tell what quests are nearby. Thus idea [7] is closer to how Quest Society would work in real life. )๐จ3B: [9] High School
3B: This is a scene where charcters are in high school uniform walking and chatting along. 3B: There is no direct relation to any philosophy or concept. It is just a slice of life scene.
๐๏ธ Decision
3B: How should we decide which one to draw next?
Tanya: I think [7] is the most useful. I think it can explain the best what Quest Society is and how it work better than the other ideas.Sasha: I have a hard time picturing what [7] is. If we have to choose I would like to first see some drafts.LRRH: 3B could you make a small sketch of each idea on the same page? Ideas 1 to 9.3B: Okay. That'll be next. Please wait.
This is an escape room book game. There are about 18 puzzles. We don't have to do it at the same time or in one go. Maybe each of us can pick and do one page.
๐ฏ How to play
Sasha: Please pick a place, explore, and solve the puzzle. Call for help if you need help, but please don't look at the hint or answer at the back of the book.
Tanya: Do we just go in chronological order?Sasha: I haven't decided yet.Black: What about the cover, there seems to be a clue.Sasha: I think each puzzle should have its own section.Sasha: The overall puzzle is to get the correct sequence of the rooms. Let's follow the order if a person explores the castle.
๐ Outside the Castle
Sasha: Magic Detectives has been callled to solve a curse at a castle. Sasha and some other are the first to arrive. The castle seems to be vacant, which is strange.
Black: From the outside, Black sees strange light shining form the ballroom.
๐ [7] Courtyard
Black: The courtyard leads to several places. Black wants to go to the Ballroom first, but a trail of hay seems to come from the West Tower. On a wall in the courtyard was the number 7 written in magic. "Should we split up?" Black asked.
๐ [12] West Tower
P4: P4 flies to the West Tower and sees light shining onto the Armory.
๐ [8] Armory
Tanya: At the Armory, Tanya follows the footprints of a pony to the Stables.
Tanya: This book is hard to RP.Sasha: I'm okay with finishing it quickly.
๐ [12] Stables
Evelyn: At the Stables, Evelyn goes to the garden by following rose petals.
Evelyn: I think the next room is the garden because the clue talks about the "next move", and on the floor there is a knight chess piece that can reach the rose in one move. Of the three choices, Garden seems to be the right one.Tanya: Is it okay if we talk about our thought process?Sasha: I think that is the point. Otherwise it won't be interesting to read.
๐ [15] Garden
Zoey: The garden has well kept maze. The only path not blocked by hedges leads to the Gate House.
Zoey: Isn't this too easy? XDZoey: And I picked up a latern on the way. XD
๐ [15] Gate House
Casey: The gate house has a giant gate. One of the them leads to the Ballroom.
Casey: The clue talks about turning to the cover. Since we saw "Ballroom" on the cover, the next room should be the Ballroom.
๐ [22] Ballroom
Black: The room has two similar but different paintings.
Black: I think the clue is about the number of differences in the painting, because each exit is number from 1 to 8.Black: Earring, Forehead pendant, Headdress, Necklace, Ring, Shoulders, Sleeves, Top Trim.Black: I count 8 differences so the next room should be the library.
๐ [18] Library
P4: The Library has a word finding puzzle. ๐
P4: P4 found all the words but only see the symbol of A. P4: Alchemy and Armory both start with A, but we have been to the armory so maybe the next room is Alchemy.Tanya: I see a symbol for KBlack: Word list is not aligned. Maybe each group is one letter.Tanya: The orientation of the links don't match.Sasha: The clue says one of the books might help. The only upright letters are A and L.
๐ [7] Alchemy Room
LRRH: In the Alchemy Room are color jars, most of them have wrong color labels.
LRRH: But one of the doors is red and there is a correctly labeled red jar. So Red goes to the Throne Room.
๐ [18] Throne Room
Evelyn: The Throne Room was covered with spider web. Evelyn takes the duster and clears a path to the Royal Chambers.
Evelyn: The clue was about the symbosl on the throne. According to the library code that is "RC".
๐ [13] Royal Chambers
Evelyn: At the Royal Chamber, Evelyn sees many plants that need water. So she goes to the fountain.
Evelyn: The clue asks for the most important thing the room needs. That and we have already been to the other two doors.
๐ [_] Fountain
Tanya: The Fountain has horse statues and one of them has a piece of red cloth. There is no sign of any magic symbol, but on the brick wall there is a magic circle to put the symbols. If they are put in the correct order, the curse should break.
Tanya: I think the fountain is supposed to be the last room. Either the courtyard was not the first room, or we did something wrong.Sasha: But I see the number "24" in the water.Tanya: There are only 17 blanks in the brick wall, but there are 18 rooms.Sasha: But there is a comma, maybe this room is the comma. If we have been correct and the letters are filled backward, then we are at the correct position for the comma.
๐ [_] Hall of Mirrors
Sasha: Sasha goes to the hall or mirrors. It seems that the castle people are trapped inside the mirrors.
Sasha: This room also does not have a green number, and there is no destination, just like the Fountain.Black: Room page 24 is not in the index. I think this is the true end.Evelyn: But we haven't solved the message on the wall.Tanya: I say we just pick another room and see if they connect to the courtyard eventually.
๐ [22] Treasury
Evelyn: The treasury has many gems, but the orange gems are the fewest.
Evelyn: The gems are arranged on a sudoku table, but there aren't enough gems in the room to complete it. Orange has the fewest and it leads to the Kitchen.
๐ [14] Kitchen
LRRH: Red follows the menu to the Guard House.
LRRH: The clue was the first and last letter of each line on the menu.
๐ [26] Guard House
Sylvia: Sylvia catches up with the team and picks up the sword.
Sylvia: The clue asks for a direct attack. The Alchemy door has a sword.Tanya: If this is correct, then the next room from the library is the Alchemy. Since we have already been to the kitchen, the next room of the library should be pantry.
๐ [16] Pantry
Cardinal: Cardinal flies to the pantry and follows the mason jars to the Treasury.
Tanya: We have been to every room except the training yard and the "north tower". The North Tower is on the map but not on the index. It think this means the Hall of Mirrors is at the North Tower.
๐ [26] Training Yard
Ledia: Ledia arrived at the training yard and followed the targets to the throne room.
Tanya: I think Ledia is correct and Red was wrong.LRRH: Then maybe the Alchemy room leads to the Blacksmith? We haven't been to the blacksmith.Sasha: Purple liquid is spilled on the floor and that is the only liquid spilled, matching the Blacksmith door color.
๐ [9] Blacksmith
Ledia: Ledia backtracked from the training yard to the blacksmith.
Ledia: I don't get the clue. But if Blacksmith leads to the training yard then the sequence is complete. Maybe it is talking about the training dummies that have a wooden spine.Tanya: With this we might have the sequence to solve the message puzzle at the fountain.
๐ [_] Fountain Message
Tanya: The magic symbol at most of the rooms probably arrange into a spell. Tanya returns to the fountain and lists the symbols.
Tanya: [7] Courtyard, [12] West Tower, [8] Armory, [12] Stables, [15] Garden, [15] Gate House, [22] Ballroom, [18] Library, [16] Pantry, [22] Treasury, [14] Kitchen, [26] Guard House, [7] Alchemy Room, [9] Blacksmith, [26] Training Yard, [18] Throne Room, [13] Royal Chambers, [_] Fountain, [_] Hall of Mirrors.Tanya: GL HLOOV, ROVN ZG IZRM. It doesn't make sense, so count from the other end of the alphabets.Tanya: TO SOLLE, IKEM AT RAINSasha: Still doesn't make sense even if you rearrange the sequence.Zoey: Beated by a kid's book. XDSasha: Should we guess more or take a vote and review the answers? What we are not sure are: 1) The sequence. 2) The message, 3) What we are supposed to realized when we look at the final mirror.Black: I say let's vote and reveal.
๐๏ธ Wager
Sasha: Magic Detectives followed the clues to the hall of mirrors.
Sasha: Three true or false questions. Answer two out of three correct and you get a win.[1]: The sequence that Tanya used to form the message was correct.
[2]: The message is "To solve, look at rain."
[3]: The ruler of this castle is one of us.
Tanya: Could we still discuss if it makes it easier?Sasha: Okay.Tanya: I think it matters whether the green number is on the left or right page. If the letter is decoded from the end if the number is on the right:Tanya: Gate House, Kitchen, Garden, Treasury, Training Yard, Royal Chamber, Alchemy, Stables have the number on the left side. Tanya: [7= F/T] Courtyard, [12= L/O] West Tower, [8= H/S] Armory, [12= L/O] Stables, [15= O/L] Garden, [15= O/L] Gate House, [22= V/E] Ballroom, [18= R/I] Library, [16= P/K] Pantry, [22= V/E] Treasury, [14= N/M ] Kitchen, [26= Z/A] Guard House, [7= F/T] Alchemy Room, [9= I/R] Blacksmith, [26= Z/A] Training Yard, [18= I/R] Throne Room, [13= M/N] Royal Chambers, [_] Fountain, [_] Hall of Mirrors.Tanya: Still missing some rules.Sasha: Time to vote, for those willing to risk getting a loss.Tanya: I think our sequence is wrong but the message is correct. [FTT]Ledia: Too risky this time.Zoey: I think only the message is correct. [FTF]Sasha: I think I am the ruler. [FTT]Casey: Sitting out for this one.Sasha: Anyone else?Evelyn: This is too hard. ๐ Sasha: I am going to look through the hints and see if anyone of them is different from what we thought.๐ฅSasha: The correct answers are:
Sasha: [FFT]!Sasha: So Tanya and I won but Zoey lost! It was a tough one.Sasha: Our sequence was wrong, and the message was not "To solve, look at rain." Sasha: In the next section I will talk about what we got wrong.
๐ฎ What we got wrong
Sasha: Let's count the wrongs...
Library:Sasha: After crossing out most of the letters on the puzzle, the leftover letters spell Alchemy Room!Blacksmith:Sasha: There is no book in the picture, but "spine" is the spine of the puzzle book itself, which has the letters "TY" for the training yard!Guard House:Sasha: Of the three doors, two of them have weapons. So the correct door is the one with a shield...!Treasury:Sasha: One the Sudoku grid, there is a brighter square. If you solve the sudoku, the gem for that space is for the Library!Ballroom:Sasha: The book counts only six differences, so the next room is the kitchen...!Fountain:Sasha: The message is actually "To solve, make it rain"Evelyn: I didn't notice the brighter cell and didn't solve the sudoku. ๐Zoey: I need a revenge puzzle. XDSasha: Don't worry, there will be plenty of opportunities.Tanya: So we got 5 out of 18 wrong. 72%. Not enough for a B.Tanya: If this is a real test we should choose to sit on it and review with a fresh mind.Casey: I think this game is too long. Could we keep playing 221B or Mice & Mystics?Sasha: Okay we'll continue with Mice & Mystics next!

This is Magic Bakery plays Mice & Mystics, Chapter 5: Cat-n-Mouse
Sasha: We are playing it in RP for the story. We don't follow the official game rules.
๐ฏ Roll Call
Cardinal: This chapter prepares for Maginos's plan to alert the elf city Nextor about Vanestra's attack. The plan involves befriending Brodie the cat, and getting more hair from Vanestra.
Cardinal: The hero mice are still in the forge. After taking over a mech, the team sees Brodie rushing to the forge. No one knows Maginos's plan with Brodie at the moment.Tanya: I also don't know.Casey: I think if we have the mech we don't need the cat.Tanya: Does the team know the plan to warn Nextor?Cardinal: No.
๐ฑ Brodie
Cardinal: At the forge, the hero mice see Brodie the cat rushing to them in the hallway.
Cardinal: Heroes, please describe your plan.Tanya: Maginos tells the others that he has a plan to use Brodie to help them alert Nextor.Casey: Nez can't think of why they need the cat, but poses ready to catch the cat with the mech.Evelyn: Tilda will use the catnip that Red shared with her.Sylvia: Sylvia plays a calming song to subdue the cat.P4: Filch ties up the cat.Ledia: Ledia protects the townfolks Sylvia and Red.Zoey: Lily restocks her arrows and fires a tranquilizing arrow at Brodie.LRRH: Red closes the door to the hallway.Sasha: Collin guards Maginos and Tilda.Cardinal: Everyone please roll until you get a minus.Tanya: Explaining: โโCasey: Catching: โโโโEvelyn: Using catnip: โSylvia: Subdue: โโP4: Tying: โโLedia: Guard: โZoey: Tranquilize: โโโLRRH: Close door: โSasha: Guard: โCardinal: Brodie: โโโโโโโโโCardinal: Brodie slaps the door open sending Red flying across the forge. Despite the mech being much bigger, Brodie jumps the Mech to claw Nez out of the cockpit, tearing the hatch apart. Lily makes a risky tranquilizing shot. Brodie falls on the ground, along with a bloody hatch.
Brodie takes 2 damage from its broken claw, still lodge in the metal hatch.Red is KO'ed in the corner.LRRH: Actually I meant to close the door after the cat has entered.Cardinal: As Tilda rushes to check on Red, Tilda sees a flash of fiery sparks behind a workbench, then see Red gets back up and proceeds to close the door. She appeared to be unharmed.Zoey: Auto Revive. XDTanya: Something is wrong with Brodie. I think Vanestra is controlling it to get the mech back. We need to find out how is it being controlled.Ledia: Is that the plan to free Brodie or to use it as a counter spy? If Vanestra is controlling Brodie, could we magically backtrace to know Vanestra's whereabout?Tanya: It is beyond my power to backtrace the control. That's why we destroyed the orb that was in the cockpit.Cardinal: Lily reminds everyone that her shot lasts about 10 minutes.Zoey is recognized for Tranquilizing Shot Rank B.Cardinal: Heros, please describe what you want to do in this 10 minutes.Tanya: I look for and destroy what Vanestra uses to control Brodie.Evelyn: May I reattach Brodie's claw? ๐Ledia: Or should we remove all its claws?P4: Filch ties Brodie up just in case.LRRH: Red gathers the catnip again because if Brodie was under control, the catnip might still be useful.Sasha: Collin would stop Ledia from breaking Brodie's other claws. "We want Brodie on our side."Sylvia: Sylvia prepares to seal Brodie in a crystal.Casey: Nez dislodges the claw from the hatch and reattaches the hatch.Zoey: Lily readies to cast hunter's mark on Brodie if it runs away or if we want to know where it goes next. XDCardinal: I want to introduce a new terminology. When I say "please roll 2+", it means please roll two dice, and if any of them is a plus, keep rolling until you get a minus. Everyone please roll 2+ dice.Tanya: Severe Control: โโโEvelyn: Reattach claw: โโโLedia: Break claws: โโโP4: Tie up Brodie: โโโโโLRRH: Collect Catnip: โโโโโโโโSasha: Stop Ledia: โโโSylvia: Seal Brodie: โโโโCasey: Reattach hatch: โโโZoey: Hunter's Mark: โโCardinal: To the horror of the mice heroes, Maginos realized that Brodie's left eye has been replaced by an magical orb. Maginos thinks Brodie will probably wake up if the orb is destroyed, so the mice tied up Brodie and had Tilda reattach the claw first. Meanwhile, Sylvia is ready to seal Brodie into a crystal.
Cardinal: Who is going to destroy the orb? It is not without danger.Sasha: Collin wouldn't trust Ledia to do it, maybe should Lily should do it at range.Zoey: I agree.Cardinal: Please describe how you make the shot.Zoey: With everyone safely protected, Lily fires an arrow to the orb from above with true shot. There was no way the shot could miss and it was fired from outside the cat's vision range.Cardinal: As the arrow hits the orb, a beam shoots out, melting through several workbenches. But luckily no one was in front. Brodie wakes up. Not knowing what had happened, but didn't like the fact that it was tied up. LRRH: Red uses animal speak to tell Brodie that Vanestra put something in its head, which they have just removed.Cardinal: Red roll 3+ for skill placement please.LRRH: โโโโCardinal: Brodie barely understood what Red meant, enough so that it won't immediately eat her even if it is untied. The team is reminded that Brodie is an actual cat. Not a human that was turned into a cat.Tanya: I think Brodie should remember what happened because vanestra only replaced one of its eyes. Maginos uses telepathy to tell Brodie that they reattached its claw as a sign of friendship.Cardinal: Tanya roll 2+ for placement please.Tanya: โโโCardinal: Brodie seems to remember the frenzy attack that it was made to do under Vanestra's control, and it didn't like that memory and is glowing impatient for still being tied up.Casey: I guess that's my turn. Nez said, and uses the mech to pull on the string that unties all knots.Cardinal: โโโโCardinal: After being untied, Brodie proceeds to leave the mice alone. With the doors closed, Brodie sits in a corner and licks its claw.Zoey: Is this a win?Tanya: I think we made progress. The question is if Brodie will still be neutral to us next time, and if it would go from neutral to being helpful.Casey: I think we are much stronger now. Whatever plan you have we probably don't need Brodie. Evelyn: I think we shouldn't force or trick Brodie to help us.Ledia: Even if it makes a difference between saving or not saving the kingdom?Evelyn: ๐ Brodie please leave before our team tries to use you. Casey: I open the door to let Brodie go.Cardinal: โโโโโโCasey: Wait, what?!Little Red Riding Hood is recognized for the skill Animal Speech Rank C.Tanya is recognized for the skill Telepathy Rank C.
โ๏ธ Face to Face
Cardinal: As Nez opens the door for Brodie, the team sees that Vanestra is standing on the other side of the door about to do the same. Nez finds Vanestra staring at him directly in the cockpit. "How dare you...." Vanestra says, as she conjures a fiery purple glow in her palm.
Cardinal: Heroes, please describe your action.Casey: I wrestle her down on the ground. She looks like a mage, so I will pin her before she could cast a spell.Zoey: We are only on chapter 5. What if Casey succeed? XD I assist Casey by donating my dice roll to him. I have restocked and am ready to fire. XDTanya: I would also prefer to see how this go. Maginos asks Filch to get Vanestra's hair right now.P4: Filch swings to get Vanestra's hair.LRRH: Red breaks bottles of oil at Vanestra's feet for her to slip and fall.Ledia: I assist by setting Vanestra's dress on fire.Evelyn: I cast the strongest protect on the mech.Sylvia: I play final encounter for Casey.Sasha: Collin gets into position to cut Vanestra's hair.Cardinal: Everyone rolls 2+ please.Casey: โโโโโZoey: โโโโLRRH: โโโโโLedia: โโโEvelyn: โโโโSylvia: โโโโTanya: โโโP4: โโโSasha: โโโโโCardinal: Vanestra: โโโโโโโโโโ๏ธCardinal: The purple fireball sets the forge ablaze after missing Nez as he wrestles her to the ground. Despite her super human strength that rivals the mech, she was no match to Red's bottle of oil. Vanestra falls. Nez pins her on the ground. Prince Collin beats Filch to cut off her hair.
Cardinal: However, as her hair was cut, Vanestra turns into a puff of purple smoke. The mice heroes sees Vanestra laughing at them as a mechanical clock chimes in the background. Prince Collin recognizes that the background was the vanity at the Queen's Chamber before the smoke disscipates.Cardinal: The hero mice now find themselves surrounded by purple fire, and Nez's mech is running out of juice.Evelyn: Did we run out of time? ๐Cardinal: Heroes, please describe how you would escape from the fire.Casey: I let fellow mice get onto me to use my last power to bring them out of the fire, and throw them out if needed.Zoey: Lily fires a hook shot to the ceiling and can probably take one person with her.P4: Filch can blink in and out of the fire, but he is already out of the fire.Ledia: I let Nez carry me and think maybe someone can cast create water in the Mech's water tank to keep it going.Tanya: I let Nez carry me and prepare to cast levitate to bring him out.Sylvia: I let Nez carry me and prepare to cast seal on the mech.Evelyn: I let Nez carry me because I think if Lily needs to carry anyone it should be Red. And I recast protect on everyone.LRRH: Not trying to show off or anything, but I think I would just walk across the fire after handing my backpack to Lily.Zoey: That is totally show off! XD Lily grabs Red and go. XDSasha: I think I am already outside the fire. If not I get on Nez.Cardinal: Everyone please roll 2+.Casey: โโโZoey: โโP4: โโโLedia: โโโTanya: โโโโโโโSylvia: โโโโโEvelyn: โโโโโLRRH: โโSasha: โโโCardinal: As suspected, Vanestra might have drained or damaged the Mech for it to lose power. Nez managed to bring the fellow mice outside the fire by using the mech as a bridge. As Maginos is about to cast levitate on Nez, the mice see Lily and Red are falling into the fire.
Cardinal: With a burst of emergent valor, Maginos expanded the cast to include Lily, Red, Red's backpack, and the Mech. Cardinal: Maginos collapses on the ground. He is out of mana. It looks like he needs a long rest and some cheese.Tanya is recognized for Levitate Rank A.Tanya is recognized for Overdrive Rank A.Sylvia: In addition to sealing the Mech, may I also seal the purple fire in another crystal?Cardinal: Please roll 1+ for sealing the fire.Sylvia: โโโโโโโโโZoey: OMG XDLedia: Legit.Cardinal: How would you like to do this?
๐ The workshop
๐Sylvia: After sealing the Mech for repair, Sylvia takes a second crystal to seal the fire. To her surprise, the purple flame didn't take much effort to seal. As the purple flame was sucked into the crystal, the forge remains undamaged. It was an illusion.
Sylvia: It seems that Vanestra just wanted us gone but didn't want to destroy the forge. Maybe we should take the forge, says Sylvia.Sylvia: Sylvia takes a third crystal and seals the forge. The mice watch as the equipments, tools and blueprints all went into the crystal. Now Nez will have the tools to repair the mech once we are out.Cardinal: Sylvia please roll 1+ to determine if you are out of mana.Sylvia: โโSylvia's Capture skill is now Rank SSS.Sylvia is recognized for high mana reserve Rank B.Zoey: We've got a summoner. XDLedia: Maybe we should go back and seal the king.Cardinal: Sylvia is out of mana but is not KO'ed like Maginos due to overcast.Ledia: If we seal the king then the king would be safe.P4: Then why not seal Vanestra?Cardinal: As the mice heroes learn the strength of each other, anything seems possible.Chapter 5 is complete.Sylvia obtained a crystal of purple flame illusion.Sylvia obtained a crystal of Royal ForgeEvelyn is recognized for the skill Reattach Rank B.Evelyn is recognized for the skill Burst Protect Rank A.LRRH is recognized for the skill conjure slippery oil Rank SLedia: If the purple fire was an illusion and the Mech had burst protect, how did it lose power? Tanya: Maybe it had a leak from before burst protect.Casey: Maybe the mech was not damaged, we just all think that it was.Tanya: I am fine with that also being part of the illusion. Since Sylvia dispersed the illusion after sealing the mech.Sasha: In any case the Mech can be fixed by the start of the next session. So we are all good.
Hmm... these are drafts of the ideas. {"cmd":"url","url":"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MagicBakery/Images/main/DF_20230908_01.png","desc":"[draft]"}
Evelyn: I think 1, 2, and 4 look the best.Tanya: I think the concept behind 7 is important, but the composition is missing focus because there is nothing in the middle of the picture.Sasha: Then 8 has a similar problem. There is a foreground and a background but they are not connected. Evelyn: I have something I want to say but it might be a step backward. But if I don't say I might forget. ๐3B: Better now since we are still in rough sketch stage.Evelyn: Instead of making a new scene, why don't we draw what had already happened in the previous month or a year ago? As much as I like 1, 2, and 4, the scene being depicted did not happen. It was in a park when Sylvia got the canary. ๐Evelyn: The mira mira picture made a lot of sense to me because we were there at mira mira when we took the picture. To me that picture has more meaning.Tanya: I see.Zoey: If we do it that way we would have to draw a grumpy Ivy. XDEvelyn: I think I have seen Ivy happy. Zoey: Doing what?Casey: Does it mean you could draw me and my mech?Tanya: The Mira Mira picture helps promote Mira Mira. I would like to see a picture that would help promote Quest Society, or any other peacemaking concepts. Imagine that you are at the adventurers' hall trying to introduce Quest Society to someone new. Then someone takes a picture.Evelyn: When I think of Quest Society I don't picture the adventurers' hall. I picture myself waiting at the teleport hub before questing.P4: P4 imagines dashing through buildings and forests. P4 normally doesn't need to talk to people while questing.Zoey: P4 is a runner. Tanya: I picture myself at camp checking reports.Zoey: For me I picture snacking and watching anime on one screen while checking quest chat on the other. XDEvelyn: I think it is better if we keep the scene real. ๐LRRH: I want to see #4 drawn, but maybe with their normal clothing instead of swimsuits.LRRH: I think we should focus more on getting many pictures drawn instead of deciding what to draw.Zoey: Quantity over Quality. XDLRRH: I think you need to draw a lot to have the quality.3B: I am suspectible to drawing worse when I am just trying to fill a number. I think we are close to having a well defined system of how this works.3B: I want to draw something meaningful and useful.Tanya: I think a picture that answers "what do you think of when you think about quest society" is not as useful as, "what picture can help demostrate what quest society is".Zoey: But it is hard to imagine what a person would want to see to learn about quest society when you are already in it.LRRH: Maybe we should just rank the picture ideas, and draw whichever picture that is currently highest rank. If no one objects, then Tanya's idea of "pictures that help demonstrate a peacemaking concept" is at the highest rank. Below that is Evelyn's idea of "pictures depicting memorable moments in the guild." Below that are "Fantasy and cool concepts."Tanya: I think that is a good idea. If we decide on that, we need to update the Art Request node to show the current ranking.Zoey: How do you tie break within a rank? There has gotten to be many.LRRH: Maybe just random or at 3B's choice.Evelyn: 3B what do you think about this?3B: I think if we were to list all the suggestions at the node the list would be too long. Maybe the listing should be on a google sheet.Tanya: I think we need to be able to easily review the concepts, so each idea should be its own node. We will rank them using a data tag. Then at the art request node we could jquery them in each rank.Evelyn: I think that is probably a good idea.Tanya: So if you want to propose a drawing, you should make a node and describe what you want to see, what it means to you, and what rank it belongs to. Then others can comment.Sasha: I would think in that case it shouldn't be a node because they are harder to make. I would say let's start by listing them on Google sheet, then make the macro to show them like how the wanted list and playlist are done.Tanya: I think for pictures you need a node because there are a lot more to discuss. There will be unknown number of drafts to show. Macros are only for simple information at the moment.3B: I think making a node would be easier to show drafts also.Black: I would vote for making nodes even if it has more overhead. That should make the selection easier because the person proposing the idea would need to give more thoughts about the idea.Black: I also think by doing so it would drive more code upgrades for sorting the query.LRRH: So there are two things we need to do: 1) List the ranking at Art Request node. 2) Make some nodes and rank them.Tanya: In my mind we are one month late for that system because the list is supposed to be ready for 3B to pick the highest ranked idea or draft and finish it.Black: Question: If you were to query the concepts, how will you handle when you rearrange or add more ranks? If the query is based on a data tag, wouldn't you need to update all of them whenever you change the ranking system?Black: My thought is that maybe it should not be a query, just a list of node links like how @Dungeon did it. Then we can easily add a rank or split a rank.P4: It is a kanban. ๐LRRH: If we can easily add more ranks, then let's start defining them at the request node.Tanya: @StarTree.StarTree: Done!Zoey: StarTree did more than expected! XDEvelyn: I like the cute title names of the ranks! ๐3B: I added a rank.Tanya: Now we need some starting nodes.LRRH: StarTree, could you make a node for the Three Goddesses picture? I think it can be used as a title for Chapter 19. I think it qualifies as a Rank A request.StarTree: Should this be the same node as 202206090900|this? The discussion summary about the picture could potentially be a section of the puzzle node!LRRH: Could you please show what it looks like if you add such a section to the puzzle node?StarTree: Done!LRRH: I think that is fine since that node didn't have much on it. Tanya: I think in general we should make a separate node for each subsection, then you can link to that section alone.LRRH: When you make a node we can compare.Tanya: In this ranking, manga pages about peace will be Rank S. So Fina's idea, or #6 in the draft would be Rank S, so 3B is supposed to draw that first. Does anyone disagree?LRRH: There could be more than one Rank S idea.Zoey: If I propose a picture of myself questing while watching anime, would that be Rank S? The picture demonstrates that in Quest Society, you could help people at your leisure and in comfort. There is no boss. You help your way. Help hard, help smart, help happy.Tanya: Arcacia has spoken. And I agree. I could visualize that its composition would probably beat the draft #6.Zoey: Do I need to make a node describing this? Or would this work as a node? Tanya: I think it should be at least a section in the quest society node.LRRH: Quest Society node already has many sections. I think adding an art request section there would be distracting.Evelyn: I think the content of someone describing Quest Society is relevant and could be cute once the picture is drawn.LRRH: I see the need that the request should be its own node. Anyone else want to propose more ranked ideas?Casey: I want a picture of myself posing with my mech to promote the concept of reclamation corp. It is not a new concept but it is a cool picture promoting DIY and recycling culture, which should also be part of stewardism and Gaia system.Tanya: Rank S material.Evelyn: We are suddenly getting better ideas. ๐Tanya: That is the power of rubrics.Casey: StarTree please make my art concept a node by itself so we can compare.StarTree: Done!LRRH: I am convinced that each concept should have its own node. Especially the one like Casey's because it could potentially be used in many nodes.Zoey: My picture idea can also be used for the anime node and snack node.Tanya: 3B, could you choose one and make draft? I think both Rank S ideas are worth drawing. So the earlier we start the better.3B: I suppose I could draw them based on the order they were proposed, but in terms of composition, I think Casey's concept is easier to draw because I can picture Casey facing the camera, but Zoey's concept would have Zoey looking at the screen which is away from the camera.Zoey: Can't I just momentaily look at the camera while sipping vegetable juice for veganism? XD3B: Okay. I picture your concept would be better shown in landscape, but manga title pages are in protrait. Do you have a preference?Zoey: Wallpapers are landscape though. I prefer a picture that can be used as a wallpaper. Maybe you could make a protrait manga cut as needed.3B: Okay. I think I can start drafting. Please wait.
This is a request for a drawing showing Casey posing with the Mech. This picture helps illustrate peaceful concepts such as recycling, DIY, stewardism and Gaia world.

This is a wallpaper (landscape) picture showing Zoey and her desk in her room while she is questing, which includes watching anime at the same time.

Skyle: For this chapter I want to focus on quests that bring old stories here.
Ledia: Are the stories peace related?Skyle: I think so.LRRH: You may have chapter code 34.Skyle: May I call it @Scape?LRRH: Okay. StarTree.StarTree: There are quest credits in the Guild Log tagged with "Dream", should those tags become "Scape"?Ledia: I think as a chapter codename "Dream" is understandable. I won't know what "Scape" meant. It is ambiguous.Zoey: But @Scape sounds cool. It sounds like escape.LRRH: @Dream was meant to be a dream journal chapter. Is @Scape going to do that? Old stories weren't dreams.Evelyn: I think @Dream sounds cute. ๐Skyle: I think @Scape is different.StarTree: Added to Guild Log and Quest Board!Skyle: Thank you.@Scape has been added!
Code Shift
LRRH: To backfill chapters 0 to 10, I think maybe some of the chapters can just shift up if it is easy to do so.
StarTree: It is easy to change chapter code!Tanya: What are chapter codes for?3B: They were originally for organizing manga content. I am not sure why the guild needs codes for each chapter and the meaning of a chapter.StarTree: Currently the macro that shows manga chapter pages requires the image files to be saved on the server with a chapter code number! You specify the starting page number and ending page number, then the macro creates the HTML code to show all the pages in that range.Ivy: I don't think there is an advantage to have both a chapter name and a chapter code. But I think currently the Guild Log uses the chapter code for tallying.Tanya: Yes it does.LRRH: I think having a code helps people remember what chapters there are.Ledia: When I add a quest, I assign which chapter the quest goes by specifying the chapter name. I don't need to know the chapter number.Tanya: I think the name alone is enough if we want to refer to a chapter.LRRH: I don't know why but it helps me keep track of what chapters there are in total. I am the guild master. I need to know all of the chapters.Tanya: But wouldn't there be a problem when every member has a chapter, and their names change every month?Tanya: I think a chapter should mean something bigger, like a department of an organization. And we should combine chapters that have similar goals instead of separating them.LRRH: But if you combine them you can't tell if someone can do it better with a different way of organization. So how it works is that if you want to be a "chapter master", you are allowed to do so. You can be a master without discovering something totally new to do for peacemaking. Two chapters within the same peacemaking alliance do not need to have different goals or area of focus.Evelyn: I think I understand Red's answer. Black: It is a non-hierarchical organization. Everyone and their chapter (if they have one) can work on the same thing. Focuses are just preferences of the chapter master.Tanya: I see. And I see the merit. Since every chapter is ultimately completing quests from the same pool, the more people willing to quest the better. Whether Red can remember all the chapter is not something I need to worry about.Black: But still, why do we need the chapter number? I am asking especially for the Guild Log. If you don't know the chapter number you can't get the checkmark for the day. If you enter the wrong number, the wrong chapter would get the checkmark. Why do you need to enter both the chapter name and the number?Ledia: I don't think anyone can defend that.LRRH: @StarTree, could you change the Guild Log so that it doesn't use the chapter number column?StarTree: Done! Guild Log now checks the chapter name instead of the chapter number for tallying the checkmarks!Tanya: In the Guild Log, why is the chapter name column called "Quest"?StarTree: Originally, the plan was that each quest could have a quest name or code. Then when a chapter completes a quest, the chapter gets the point. That was why when you complete a quest, you must fill the chapter column for your chapter to get a checkmark. StarTree: But people just enter the chapter name for the quest code, so the Guild Log evolved to accommodate that!Evelyn: ๐ Black: It seems there was a point, but we never used it.Ledia: We still have a column where we could fill in a node ID.Ledia: I think someone who is really interested in knowing which "Quest" is the most popular they could do the investigation.Black: Anyway, since no one has been using the Quest column as intended, we might as well call that column "Chapter."StarTree: Done!Tanya: I think the explanation of "what is a chapter" should be somewhere in the Guild Rules.Black: I agree, but if you text search "what is a chapter" in the index you could see this thread.Tanya: I know. StarTree please add Red's explanation to Guild Rules.StarTree: Added!LRRH: So, is there anything wrong if I shift @Guild to be chapter zero?
Tanya: I think I don't want to care about what the number means.Black: I would be more interested in the topic if the chapter number has a meaning. Such as if it follows a logical sequence, or is a classification code. Right now it is just in the order of "incorporation," like a serial number. I am fine with it being just a serial number.Evelyn: I think I would agree with it being the order when a chapter is formed, but that means that the number printed on the manga pages need to be changed. ๐ LRRH: Not necessarily, for example, @Guild doesn't have any manga page. And I think if we eventually don't put any chapter number on the page it will be fine.Evelyn: Okay.3B: I think we shouldn't let changing the text on mange pages affect what we do in the long run.LRRH: I think @Wish should be chapter 0 to match the manga content. @Freedom can be chapter 1. @Manga chapter 2.LRRH: I think Manga Chapter 3, 4, and 23 should become @Arena with new code chapter 3.Black: That is quite a lot of scrambling.Tanya: I think this discussion is unnecessary unless we have some breakthrough better than how it is now.Tanya: We should focus more on creating the most relevant content instead of organizing old content.Black: There is hardly anywhere on the website that would mention the chapter number. If anything I want a button that can sort the chapters by chapter name at the quest board.Tanya: Yes. Good idea.LRRH: Okay, who thinks that a chapter should not have a number at all?Evelyn: Maybe if you want to remember the history you could create a node that lists the chapters in order?Black: I think that could just be a column in the Guild Log PL. Then we don't need a chapter number at all for questing. Manga chapter number is a different topic.Black: A manga chapter could potentially cross multiple guild chapters.Zoey: That is confusing. XDSkyle: I added a quest under @Scape for the Guild History.LRRH: Okay. Then I'll leave that to you.Skyle: I don't mind figuring out this issue. But if you want to discuss it you would have to meet me at the wheatfield.LRRH: Okay.
๐พ Wheatfield
Skyle: Skyle invites Red and Red alone to the timeless wheat field, where there is nothing but the field and the night sky.
Skyle: Red has a decision that she could not make. That, is a shadow, as Skyle would call it when she sees them in people's minds. LRRH: How should I make that decision?Skyle: Skyle sees that Red wishes for completeness. Skyle asks, "What do you wish the most?"a: That manga chapters 0 to 10 started with a guild chapter.
b: That each manga chapter is anchored with an active chapter so that its storyline may continue to develop to completion.
c:Other...LRRH: I think it is (b). A page or a node gets better if someone goes there often. If a manga chapter is tied to an "active" chapter, then it has a better chance to continue.Skyle: Why do you think that they are not continued? Is it because:
a: People forgot that they exist.
b: People have better or more important things to do.
c:Other...LRRH: Both. I think people need to be reminded what they have done in the past so that they can build on something instead of repeating the same thing.Skyle: Would any of the solution below be okay?a: When a manga chapter is presented, the node shows related active chapters.
b: Create Art Request to complete or continue a manga chapter.
c: Recognize that a manga chapter is supposed to end. Since it is supposed to end, it is different from an active chapter which is recurring.
d: Ask active chapters to "adopt" one or more manga chapters so that none of the manga chapter is an orphan, while an active chapter does not need to change its chapter number.
e:Other...LRRH: I think these are all good ideas, but I think people seldom go to the home node of their chapter because you don't need to go there when you are doing a quest. Maybe if you adopts a manga chapter, the manga title should show on the quest board when you look at what quest to do.Skyle: That might take too much space at the quest board, but the calendar seems to be the natural place to show a chapter page.LRRH: I think the calendar section should show a picture good for the calendar. But I think now I agree that we don't need a chapter number for the active chapters. I am okay with the manga chapter number stay the way it is. I will wait for Sylvia to add all the manga chapter nodes, I think it will look complete when I see the manga chapters node where we make and discuss art request. When we discuss art requests, we will be easily see all the past manga chapters. I think that is the main thing I want.Skyle: Skyle sees that Red's shadow is gone. Inside her mind she is now bright with hope that she will see the completeness she wants.LRRH thanks for the session.
Zoey: Why did Red change her mind? XDEvelyn: I think it was because Skyle listened. ๐LRRH: The multiple choices made it easier because I didn't need to come up with the reason myself. I think the multiple choices help me find my reason.Evelyn: I like the session. It feels meditative reading it.Tanya: Am I understanding correctly that we will not "backfill" 0 to 10 with a chapter because from now on a "chapter" doesn't have a number?LRRH: Yes. The chapter number is only for the manga. @Chapters will not be refered to with number.Tanya: I think this result works better with Place Level where each @ represents a virtual location, and you could think of it as a home address of an active member. Zoey: Then @ is the address. An address or zone can have a charter.Tanya: I would prefer calling those names "Address" than "Chapter name" to avoid confusion with manga chapter numbers.LRRH: StarTree please update the Guild Log header.StarTree: Done!

At the Zoey's desk node you can see two draft. Should I go ahead and line it? What would you like to add to it?
Comments
Evelyn: I like the side view more.Zoey: For the sideview, could you change the star flag to a slogan of either "Go Vegan" or "Go Ranger"?3B: I will make it "Go Vegan".3B: I have two questions: What should the screen be showing, and what do you want to wear?Zoey: For clothing maybe casual indoor clothing for the fall. For the screen, maybe a map of quests and a feed viewing someone on a quest.3B: Okay.Vivi: Could you change the furnishing to have more fantasy style?3B: I'll try. 3B: I am thinking that may I should do two drawings at once, because I could leave this thread open for comments while I work on another drawing. 3B: So now I will draft Casey & Mech. Please feel free to add more comments for the Zoey draft.
What is a hate crime in your philosophy? How is it addressed?
๐ Status Quo
Hate crime is typically defined to give additional sentence to a crime if the crime is found to be committed with an intention of unlawful discrimination.
Natalie: For example, vandalism is a crime. If it is done targeting a protected class, then it qualifies as a hate crime and the sentencing could be harsher.LRRH:Bullies can be evicted. {"cmd":"url","url":"https://twitter.com/LRRHBakery/status/1438180714407550976","desc":"Twitter"}.LRRH: The bullying component in addition to a crime. {"cmd":"url","url":"https://twitter.com/LRRHBakery/status/1520130226843308032","desc":"Twitter"}.
๐ Reciprocative Justice: Bully Crimes, not Hate Crimes
"Hate crime" is not specifically defined because a person is allowed to hate whoever they want. But Bullying is a crime, which is the use of methods to make someone's living area hostile to them. Bullying covers physical attacks and psychological attacks, therefore it includes verbal abuses.
LRRH: The main thing about Bullying in reciprocative justice is that it opens a reciprocative sentence of expelling, because Bullying has an effect to drive a person away from where they live, the offender can then be reciprocatively sentenced to be driven out of where they live.LRRH: Once upon a time on {"cmd":"url","url":"https://twitter.com/LRRHBakery/status/1520807205842210816","desc":"Twitter"}.

What should StarTree do next for the GitHub migration quest?
๐ฐ๏ธ Backward Compatibility
๐Ivy: The new JS code being updated should be backward compatible, so that if you change a section of the code that will run for GitHub, the same section of the code should work when you copy and paste it back to Blogspot.
StarTree: The code currently is not backward compatible because GitHub file structure does not have the "p" folder and the order of the functions are not the same!StarTree: It is harder to copy and paste change when the functions are not in the same order.Ivy: Could you use the same folder structure, then confirm that if you copy and paste the code back to blogspot it will still work? The code will be in the new order for GitHub.StarTree: The paths are quite different! "../../p/archive" vs "./archive"Black: I think you can have a new function that tells the code whether it is being run in Blogspot or GitHub. When you copy and paste just don't copy that function.StarTree: Roger! Adding function _At, AtBlogSpot, AtGitHub. Backs up Side Panel. Adding function BasePath. Testing.StarTree: The new code cannot be directly copy and pasted. ๐ญ StarTree will rearrange the old code in the same order to find the reason.Black: I think you have a record of what you changed last time.StarTree: StarTree didn't keep a record because StarTree planned to just rearranged all but not changing any of them! ๐ญStarTree: StarTree found that the bug is in what StarTree has just created. It is now fixed and the code can be copy and pasted!The code is now backward compatible according to Ivy's requirement.Ivy: Could you also check if the CSS portion is also backward compatible?StarTree: It is not. ๐ญ StarTree will compare and check.StarTree: GitHub css has custom body, header, and footer. StarTree will exclude those from copy and paste.StarTree: Merging changes at Blogspot to use image links hosted at GitHub to GitHub CSS. The css code is not backward compatible.Ivy: Good job.StarTree: Wee~~!
๐งญ URL Links
Black: I still think that the next goal should be to make the URL linking functional so that when the user right click to view a link in a new tab, the link would work.
Black: But to do that I think the first step is to make each new panel not to show the GitHub Migration node by default. The iFrame should be shown only if the user uses the the search box to load a node at Blogspot.StarTree: Adding RemoveParent. Modifying IFrameURLSet. Testing. Adding collapsible div around iframe.StarTree: Upgrade the code for node loading to just use the last 12 characters. Testing. Adding IFrameRefresh.StarTree: Turning Quest Board into a node, with ID 900000000000.StarTree: Making the panels transparent.Arcacia: Adjusting panel heights.@Board is now Rank A.
Wee~~!

This is a play-once only detective game. Its official game rules are bad. We will play it our way.

โญ
This is a play-once only detective game. The content is probably similar to NCIS.
Sasha: The game is rated for teens and up.
๐ฏ How we will play
Sasha: This game has similar content as NCIS, but the gameplay is known to be worse. So we will play the mystery in our own way.
Sasha: Each scenario has a starting story and 21 clue cards divided into seven areas, where each area has a level 1, level, and level 3 card.Sasha: The official game rule was that the players are supposed to reveal all level 1 clues (from all nine areas) before they may reveal any level 2 clues and so on for level 3.Sasha: I think what we would do is to get clues following the order, but without the restriction to get all clues of one level before the second.Sasha: We will also limit ourselves to get much fewer clues than the game intended, then we will make guesses.Sasha: Let's say we only get 12 clues total.Sasha: Any questions?Evelyn: Is Cardinal running this?Sasha: Yes, Cardinal is running it. So you describe what you want to do and Cardinal will tell what you find.Ledia: In that case how do we add fantasy elements to it?Sasha: @Cardinal, any thoughts?Cardinal: I think it is doable, but I cannot gaurantee that the events are the same as the original game.Sasha: Because?Cardinal: I may change the event for fantasy and for the player's creative actions.Sasha: Okay. Let's start the game and see how it goes.
๐จ Case 1: Red Rock Tavern
Cardinal: Magic Detectives are called to investigate the death of the tavern owner's wife at the tavern's swimming pool.
Cardinal: According to the husband, his wife was not in bed at 5am. He looked for her and found her dead faced down at the edge of the pool, head in the water.Cardinal: Also on scene that night are the tavern's chef and the tavern's manager.Cardinal: Detectives, how would you like to proceed?Cardinal: I think each detective can simultaneous decide what they would do. I will answer immediately questions that the player should already know if they had read the clue themself. If the clue comes from a card, I will ask if the player wants to reveal the card. The plan is that the team can only reveal 12 cards total.Tanya: Does this game only have three suspects? What is the objective?Cardinal: There are only three suspects. The objectives are to get the Motive, Means, and opportunity correctly.Tanya: Has the body been moved when we arrived?Cardinal: The body has not been moved.Tanya: Tanya thinks that it is unusual for the husband to not have tried to save the wife given that only her head was in the water.Evelyn: When you say the wife's head is in the water... What does that mean? ๐Cardinal: The arriving detectives start recording and move the body out of the water. There is evidence of hard impact on the her right temple, and three parallel scratches on her neck. The scratches are three inches long and are on the left side of her neck.
P4: Does anyone have claws?Cardinal: P4 please roll 1+.P4: โโโCardinal: P4 sees that the scratch marks were not deep and did not draw blood. It could have been done by a human hand. The injury on the right temple was large and P4 finds a bloodstained rock nearby.Zoey: Are we using any card yet? I think we should just know everything we would initially know.Cardinal: Zoey arrives on scene and sees many shoeprints by the pool. Among them is a set of deeper shoeprints going from the main building to the pool. The main building is where the owner couple and the chef live. The manager lives in the building across the pool.
Tanya: I think the deeper footprints mean that someone carried the wife to the pool. I would assume that to be the husband. The husband was the killer, therefore he did not try to save the wife when he "found" her at the pool.Ledia: Agreed. Based on what we have.Cardinal: Tanya asks the husband what he believe to have happened. The husband says that his wife probably went for a midnight walk, slipped by the pool, hit her head on a rock and fell.
Tanya: I suppose there is no footprint immediately around the wife since the floor is wet and slippery.Evelyn: May I... raise the wife? ๐Cardinal: If you heal or raise the wife now, evidence could be erased and the wife might not regain memory of what happened.Zoey: Nice excuse. XDCardinal: Evelyn knows that if she raises the wife now, they could lose evidence necessary to find the killer. According to the husband, the wife suffers from absence seizure and is addicted to alcohol and other drugs.
Evelyn: I would like to see if she was drugged. ๐Tanya: I think that might be of lower priority unless the husband was completely lying about her condition. I think higher priority tasks are to match the footprints, and to investigate the rock to confirm if the impact could have happened the way the husband described, Ledia: We have no motives at all.Cardinal: Ledia learns from brief questioning that the tavern chef, who is an older woman and raised the owner since birth, dislikes the wife and thinks that she is having an affair with the manager.
Ledia: Ledia looks for the shoes of the suspects.
๐ [1] Shoeprints
Cardinal: The deeper shoeprint was of a size 10 work boot, and has a distinct characteristic because something is lodged in the tread of the right heel.
Ledia: This seems to only confirms Tanya's theory.Tanya: Without further clues, the motive of the murder would be of jealousy.Sasha: But why kill the wife? Why not the manager?Ledia: Maybe the owner still needs the manager to run the tavern. It doesn't sound like the wife does anything for the tavern.Tanya: I can't think of any reason for the manager to want to kill the wife. If anything the manager woud have a motive to kill the husband, let the wife inherit the tavern, then marry the wife and get the tavern.Sasha: I check financial records to see if there are other motives.
๐ [2] Financial Records
Cardinal: Sasha finds a few unusual things: 1) The tavern has been propsering since the manager was hired 10 years ago, but he had never gotten a raise since the first year. 2) There is a one-time payment from the owner to a beast master. 3) The tavern fired the night shift manger two weeks ago. The sole manager is now working both shifts. 4) The life insurance policy of the owner couple had increased last year by a lot.
Sasha: Is there more to know about the beast master?Cardinal: The owner says that he lent money to the beast master because the beast master, who is also his friend, wanted to buy a tiger.Zoey: What? XDEvelyn: The owner seems like a nice person. ๐Zoey: I look for the shoes with elemental trace. XD
๐ [3] Shoes
Cardinal: Zoey examined the shoes of the suspects and found that the owner's work boots are a match.
Zoey: Can we just interogate the husband about the shoeprints?Cardinal: Would would like to do the interrogation?Tanya: I would like to, but would prefer more evidence first. I think there is a high chance that the pool was not where the murder happened. Cardinal: Tanya checks the bedroom of the couple and finds a few pieces of evidence: 1) Brown granular substance by the wife's nightstand. 2) Unusual flakes of skin on the floor by the wife's bedside. 3) several strands of red hair at the foot of the bed.
Tanya: I would like to first identify the unusual skin flakes.
๐ [4] Skin Flakes
Cardinal: The lab identifies that the skin flakes are that of a rattlesnake.
Tanya: I think the husband lied. He didn't lend money to the beast master so he could buy a tiger. The husband bought a rattlesnake. We need to question the beast master, find the snake, and screen the body for poison.P4: P4 wants to look for the snake.Evelyn: I will check for poison.
๐ [5] The Snake
Cardinal: P4 finds and asks the beast master about the owner buying the snake. The beast master says the owner did not buy a snake, but loaned him money so he could buy a tiger. He then shows P4 the tiger that he bought with that money. At the beast master's place, P4 does see that he has rattlesnakes also.
P4: But we found rattlesnake skin near the wife's bedside.Cardinal: P4 please roll 3+ for a perception check.P4: โโโCardinal: In the presence of so many exotic animals, P4 was too distracted to press the beast master further. In addition, her drooling made the beast master feel uneasy, so he showed P4 the door. P4 returned empty handed but full of fantasy of tasting each of those animals.Zoey: XDTanya: Do we need to get the murder weapon in this game?Cardinal: No. You only need to get enough for an arrest warrant.Sasha: I don't think you need to have the murder weapon to make an arrest.Ledia: I think it would be sufficient if we could connect the rattlesnake to the poison type, if the wife was bitten.P4 is recognized for the trait exotic gourmet Rank A.
๐ [6] Autopsy: Toxicology
Cardinal: Evelyn confirmed that the cause of death was internal bleeding, and found two puncture wounds, an inch apart on the inside of the wife's swollen right forearm.
Zoey: Rattlesnake bites can cause internal bleeding.Tanya: So the theory is that for life insurance payout, the husband got a rattlesnake. Had it bit the wife in the bedroom, then relocated her body to the pool and hit her with a rock.Evelyn: This might not be relevant, but why didn't the snake bite him instead?Zoey: The beast master probably taught him some tricks.Evelyn: Okay.Tanya: I'm sorry for stopping Evelyn earlier. We could have figured out that the wife was poisoned first with an autopsy.Evelyn: But if we always do an autopsy there isn't really much of a decision. ๐ Cardinal: I have a comment on this if you would remind me to talk about it after the game ends.Zoey: Do we have all we need? We only took 6 out of 21 cards.Cardinal: Although Sasha said the clues are supposed to be revealed in order of its level, I decided that for the game to flow better, I would reveal whichever card that answers a specific question. The clue card for internal bleeding is a level 3 autopsy clue.Cardinal: If Evelyn had asked to do just a general autopsy, I would have first revealed the clue on the level 1 card only.Tanya: I see. So if our theory is good, we would skip ahead and use fewer cards.Cardinal: Yes.Sasha: Then what is next? Interrogation?Tanya: I would like to interrogate the husband.Cardinal: Tanya please roll 1+.Tanya: โ
๐ Interrogation
Cardinal: While the husband is still being detained, Tanya lays out the evidence on the table and explained to him that they have enough for an arrest warrant. The husband admits nothing and refuses to speak without a lawyer.
Ledia: I think that is fail for an interrogation, but a win for us.Sasha: So do we decide to end now? How many Level 3 card did we reach?Cardinal: Two. That the skin flakes are that of a rattlesnake, and the cause of death being internal bleeding.Zoey: I think it is cheating if you ask what level a clue is.Sasha: Okay. I won't ask next time.Ledia: I am convinced that we are about right. I think this length for the game is acceptable if we can end soon without revealing all clues.Tanya: I agree.Sasha: Okay, then please confirm if you want to wager on a theory.Tanya: My theory.Ledia: Tanya's theory.Zoey: Same.Sasha: Same.Evelyn: Same.P4: Same.Sasha: Okay. Cardinal.
๐๏ธ SOLUTION
Cardinal: With ample evidence, the detectives got an arrest warrant to arrest the owner for the murder of his wife.
Cardinal: Detectives, now is the time if you want a specific ending to this case.Evelyn: I would like to raise the wife in a clean state so that she and her lover could continue the tavern.Cardinal: Any other course of action?Tanya: No contest.Cardinal: Evelyn please roll 2+ for raise.Evelyn: โโโโCardinal: Now please roll 1+ for detox placement.Evelyn: โ๐Cardinal: Although the revival was successful, detoxification proved to be too hard for Evelyn to complete. The wife returned to the tavern and enrolled in a rehab program. With the care of the tavern manager who she loves, there is hope for a better future for them.
Evelyn has leveled up her Raise skill to Rank A.Evelyn has gained Detoxification Rank C.Sasha: Okay. I think this game is quite doable. Any comments for improvement?Evelyn: I think we are getting much fewer clues in the begining and it is difficult to know what to do. But I think we can get better at this.Tanya: Can we now know what areas we missed so we could do better next time?Cardinal: The only area that I would say you missed was collecting clothings of the suspects. There was blood stain on the husband's bathrobe. Poisoned blood dripped from the wife onto his robe as he carried her body to the pool.Tanya: I see.
Sasha thanks all for playing!

Binary search is about taking a guess in the middle of a searchable range and use the search result to determine where to search next.
Black: Example: You find a new bug in a software that used to be working. You have one version that is working, one that does not, and 10 versions in between. To find which version the bug started to happen, you take a guess and check version 5. If it works, you take the next guess at version 7; if not , you take the next guess at version 3.
For comparison and disambiguation, Social Democracy means democracy within the confines of social justice. This means that social justice is above democracy.
This node is about the difference between "socialism" and "communism" when we talk about them at Magic Bakery. LRRH: Since there is no "official" difference between them, but we need words to talk about philosophies regardless what a political party prefers to call themselves.
๐ Communism
Here we define that Communism means a social structure where communal ownership and decision is held among the top priority, even in cases where it is unnecessary according to Arcaciann principles.
For example, a communistic society might find it acceptable to use majority rule to decide whether to apply pesticide through aerial spraying to a region despite there are residents who don't want to be sprayed. The minority voice in such a society could simply be ignored.
LRRH: Whereas in a Choice Democracy or Arcacian Society, the society would intentionally not spray dissenting area.
๐ Socialism
Here we define that Social means a social structure where those who maintain the social functioning have more decision power. In general this means taht the working class has more decision power than people who simply "own land".
Take the same pesticide spraying for example, in a socialistic society, only those who are contributing to the maintaining the region (through work) may have a say in deciding whether pesticde shall be used.
LRRH: Socalism can suffer from the same blindspot where an individual does not get their own share of decision power as in Choice Democracy or Arcacian Society. A socialistic society does not prioritize letting a person who does not contribute to the "society" to be left alone and decide what happens to their share of the world.

This is a discussion for the table of contents node.
Zoey: Please discuss here instead of on the page. XD
Tanya: I was just saying Arcacianism should be after autonomy because you need the concept of autonomy to define what help is.Zoey: Good. Good.Tanya: Net migration rate should be after zoning. You need to explain what zones are, then you can explain how it can expand or shrink.Evelyn: I think Gaia system should be somewhere.Tanya: After explaining Gaia we can talk about quest society.
๐ About Charters
๐Zoey: I think charters were not originally for the manga, but extended quests with a final artifact.
Zoey: Seed of Peace was supposed to be a book. And we knew we couldn't complete it quickly, so we needed a Charter to define the end goal to align our efforts.Zoey: So that means unless you have a long term project, you don't really need a charter. And each long term project should have its own charter.LRRH: I think I agree.Tanya: I think for most addresses the final artifact would be the website itself and not a separate book or PDF. LRRH: But books are cute.Evelyn: Yes. ๐Black: I think we could aim for a logical presentation like a course, as oppose to a wiki. Although when you add content at first you shouldn't worry too much about how it would be presented or arranged in a book. Zoey: Agreed.
3B: Is this thread related to organizing content for manga?Zoey: It would always be good if there is manga to go with it XDZoey: But I think simply having diagram or some visual aids for each section would be a good first step, because we don't know how the section will be arranged in the end.Tanya: So milestone 1: Every section has a node. Milestone 2: Every section has helpful visual.Black: I think the table of content should be more compact, without the explanation of its order.Zoey: I think we need that for now so we don't have to refer to the thread for the dependency.Fina: Reciprocative Justice should be on the list.Tanya: I think that should be just after Autonomy.Fina: All the nodes should have the new layout format.Fina: If the book is titled 'Seed of Peace', the first setction should have both Peace Ranking and Arcacian Principle. Zoey: I think the Peace Ranking node can introduce Arcacianism principle, but the actual explanation of AP would have to come after Autonomy.Zoey: Okay. I kind of agree that there are too many nested frames so I will just mention the order here. XDZoey: I think Peace Ranking should go first because it is a good introduction and overview, and it has a rubric.Fina: If that is first, wouldn't that be the Seed?Zoey: Highly possible that the "seed" is the rubric. I think Arcacian Principle now has a contender.Zoey: I am making an Arbitrative concepts section to include Autonomy, Reciprocative Justice.Tanya: I think if you group it like that you also need Net Migration Rate and Zoning.Zoey: I think I will group those in another section of Mechanics.Zoey: Making the links more compact...Zoey: The result is very similar to the Philosophies node. 202207161423|[link], but with only selected content.
Let's keep going!

Magic Detectives will take point for making the policy evaluation node.
Sasha: It is completely appropriate because Magic Detective solves real life issues.
๐ฏ Policy Evaluation Steps
Sasha: What are the steps to evaluation a policy? The ideas will be listed on a node.
Black: It is hard to tell what order they should be, but you have to consider zoning and roles.Evelyn: If we are evaluating for the peace content then we need to rank it on the peace ranking.Tanya: I think this topic is easier to follow once the evaluation list has some concrete questions, and we use it to evaluate policies. Sasha: Sit tight.Sasha: I am adding the headings, but I think next we need specific questions or explanation.Evelyn: I think a policy should also be written clearly so that it is not ambiguous, and its language should not be offensive.Black: I think Zoning and Role analysis are part of evaluating the validity of the policy.Tanya: I think you can also evaluate a policy on whether it is redundant or consistent, whether it is grounded on principles.LRRH: I think a good policy should show some concrete examples on a situation where it applies and where it doesn't.Black: I think that can be part of validity check.Tanya: Then Groundedness can be part of validity. Compactness can be part of composition.Ledia: What about Effect? Should we care about whether it would work or on what kind of audience it would work?Sasha: I will add them for now, adhering to brainstorm spirit.Zoey: How about fact checking or relevant scientifc support?Tanya: I think science or statistics could be part of effect, that your evaluation on the effect is backed by statistics or scientific expectation.Sasha: I will add fact check as part of validity, although I think that fact check has more to do with applying a policy than evaluating it.Evelyn: I think we can also evaluate a policy based on the cost to apply it.Tanya: This is a good node and every sub topic needs its own node.@Detective is now Rank A5.Sasha: Should we keep going and make the nodes? Or should we try discussing what each item means before we make more nodes?Tanya: I think it might help if the Policy Evaluation node highlights what are not part of the consideration. For example, who proposed the policy should be irrelevant. We are supposed to be able to evaluate a policy impartially even if we don't know who proposed.Ledia: Yes.Tanya: I don't think we need separate nodes to explain non-factors. We can explain them in the policy evaluation node.Zoey: Until its content grows big.Tanya: Yes.Zoey: Are all of these rubrics?Black: I think Validity as a group can have one score. The score can be the number of passes out of the total number of categories. Black: I think if the policy gets the zoning or the role wrong then it fails.Evelyn: I think each composition topic can be its own rubric. The kind that goes from D to S.Tanya: It seems that each validity item should be a pass or fail. A policy should pass all of the validity checks. Black: I want to briefly explain what I mean by zoning and role.Black: Zoning: A policy fails if it misidentifies zones such that passing the policy would violate autonomy. For example, a bad policy might try to impose a preferential change onto a common zone. Black: Role: A policy fails if it misidentifies the roles, such as punishing the victim or helping a violator.Evelyn: I think our introduction should be clear that we are evaluating them for the intention of peacemaking.Sasha: I think we don't need to make such emphasis. Or why do you think we need to?Evelyn: Because we can't call something invalid unless we specific what kind of validity we are evaluating for.Tanya: Maybe validity is not quite the correct word.Evelyn: But it would be if we specify that we are talking about peacemaking.Tanya: The two examples can be grouped as "decipherability" or logical validity.Black: I think Zoning, Roles, and examples can be grouped as Logical Validity.Zoey: Fact check can be its own group.Tanya: Then Groundedness can also be its own group. It has something to do with maturity. An immature policy tends to be ad hoc and is all by itself like an exception. As the set of policies mature, they become combined and simplified, parameterized and generalized.Black: I think maturity is a better group name.Sasha: I am adding a comment that we do this for peace making, but you may use the rubrics for other purposes.Evelyn: Okay.Fina: This node is probably the most important node created this month. I would nominate this for Rank S. More so if it is externally posted.Black: I can post it at Nextdoor. Does it count if it is just a placeholder post? Each sub topic is worth its own post.Fina: That would be fine by me.Black: Done.@Detective is now Rank S5.
Here we organize our thoughts on how to evaluate policies into a guide. Sasha: We do this in the context for peace making, but you may use the rubrics for other purposes.
At this node we distinguish a few types of zones relevant to autonomy and policy evaluation.
Common Zone
A common zone is a zone where people may normally enter, traverse, or camp (temporary lodging) without worry of violating anyone's autonomy.
Black: The significance of the common zone is that by default, everyone has the right to be there. All else being equal, anyone who tries to pressure or exclude others from the common zone is a violator of autonomy.
Fina: By reciprocative justice, the bullies at the common zone could lose their right to enter the common zone.
Optional Zone
An optional zone is a zone where participation is optional. The host has the right to set trespassing rules and expel unwelcomed visitors.
Black: The significance of the optional zone is that it allows the host to expel unwanted participants at will, which cannot be done in a common zone. Those who deny the host's right to expel would be in violation of the host's autonomy.
Fina: By reciprocative justice, a violator of a host's autonomy at an option zone would lose their right to have an option zone, and if they do not stop themself from intruding other's option zones, they would also lose their right to the connective common zones.Tanya: In other words, violators may get a restrain order around the option zone they have offended, where the zone of the restrain order could overlap with the common zone.
Captive Zone
A captive zone is a zone where people have trouble opting out or escaping from.
Black: The significance of the captive zone is that it describes a zone where a person within may claim that their autonomy is being violated.
Fina: By reciprocative justice, a person who holds someone captive loses their right to autonomy and can be held in captivity.Tanya: In other words, violators may get a restrain order around the option zone they have offended, where the zone of the restrain order could overlap with the common zone.
๐ Please see the discussion for additional comments on zoning from Stewardism.
This thread is for collecting content regarding the Zoning node.
๐ฏ Introduction
Tanya: Zoning is a required concept to evaluate whether a policy would violate autonomy.
๐๏ธTanya: Opt-in Zone is a zone where people normally don't need to enter. Such a zone gives the host of the zone the greatest freedom to define the rules within the zone.
Tanya: Examples of an opt-in zone include a person's private home, or a public space that had been reserved.๐๏ธTanya: Connective Zones are zones where people normally need to traverse from one zone to another.
Tanya: In Stewardism, there is a concept of freedom of travel, that disallows declaring an option zone where it would cutoff the common zone in such a way that prevents people from reaching places.๐๏ธTanya: A captive zone refers to a zone where some participants or inhabitants are unable to leave or opt out for a variety of reasons.
Tanya: Reasons include a law that forbids people to leave, or the lack of law that let people opt out to a share of livable zone.Black: I think we need to add "Common Zone". Common zones exists not necessary because people need to traverse them to go from point A to point B, but that the zone itself can be a destination for harvesting, sightseeing, or other activities.Tanya: What is the law in the common zone or connective zone?Fina: In short there is no law. But in practice, most "common" zones are shared opt-in zones. Fina: For example, if you have five people co-owning a zone, that zone is their opt-in zone. Within that zone they could subdivide into their own private option zones, while maintaining a common zone.Tanya: What happens if one of them is a criminal and the other four wants to expel?Fina: Suppose the world has a total of 20 zones, and currently each of the five people has 1 option zone and together they share the remaining 15 zones. In Stewardism, no one is allowed to hurt any of the zones. If a person commits a crime that hurts a zone and does not follow through to restore it, that person loses their right to autonomy. They can be confined up to the extent that they can no longer damage the zones. Tanya: I think this is different from what I am expected. @Black, what did you mean by common zone?Black: By common zone I meant a zone of public spaces where normally everyone has the right to be or travel across. In my mind I don't think it is representative to say that "there is no law", but that "there is the common law."Black: Without the common law, you can't say that bullies who attack common can be killed.Fina: Of course you can do that even in a lawless zone. The situation is not different when you and your friend decide to occupy zone A as your private zone, but another tribe disagrees. There is no "law" governing them unless the two parties create law to resolve their conflict. When that happens, they, the two parties, have created an opt-in zone that they recognize. While tribe C has no obligation to recognize their agreement.Tanya: Does "Common" zone implies that it is an alliance zone? Such that we don't call a lawless zone "common".Fina: The entire world is Common by default, then alliances form to mutually acknowledge option zones. If you don't acknowledge others' option zone, they may also don't acknowledge yours. That is just reciprocative justice. Fina: As a result, you have enforcers of the alliance law covering the entire world because the alliance has an agreement of the common laws.Fina: Whether the common zone has or has no law is a matter of the maturity of the alliance.Fina: The word "common" itself doesn't imply whether there is or is no law.LRRH: To me common implies a zone within an alliance already.Fina: But what is the point? The alliance would claim as far as they can to the border or territory that is claimed by another tribe or alliance.LRRH: I think that concept is hard to grasp or explain.LRRH: In my mind "Common" implies a zone that is already in use. Such as a zone where people need to travel across or need to visit. It is different from a piece of vacant or unclaimed by claimable zone. LRRH: In general, because a common zone is already in use and has a need to be shared, a person cannot decide by themself to take a piece of it. Whereas they can do so on a piece of vacant line by banking their gaia credits. Fina: In stewardism terminology that vacant land is part of common until it is claimed. You can't tell which piece of land is required to remain as a connective zone until enough vacant lands are claimed.Tanya: It seems that in Fina's terminlogy, Common just means any zone where you may travel to without worrying about trespassing.Fina: Exactly. LRRH: Okay. That makes total sense. I was about to call for a resolution.Black: Yes that is a good definition.Tanya: So what happens when a person wants to opt out of a Stewardism alliance?Fina: But you wouldn't need to opt out. If you want a domain for yourself, you are claiming an opt in zone. And if your opt in zones happen to be disjoint, you still need the common zone to travel among them.Tanya: But wouldn't there be a case where you claim enough opt-in zones that you loses your privilege to enter common?Fina: No, that would be like saying if you check out too many books from the library the library doesn't allow you to walk around.Fina: There is no hard maximum amount of zone you can claim as an opt-in zone, but if someone else wants just as much, you have to yield due to reciprocative justice. Fina: Say you are doing research and you need to simultaneously check out many books. There is no maximum limit to the amount you may check out, but when someone else wants to check out a book you are using, and they have fewer books checked out than you have, then you must yield. Tanya: Stewardism sounds a lot more lenient than I first imagined.LRRH: I thought there is a tiny maximum to ensure that the common space is maximized.Fina: The meaning is the same as before. If you are claiming a lot of opt-in zone because you are greedy, then you will be devastated to find that even if you built all over your large opt-in zone, when someone wants to claim their first opt-in zone, you need to yield a zone where you have already built a nice house. Because you were "technically" building on common, you simply haven't confirmed which zone of the common that you built on is your actual opt-in zone. If the new occupant of the zone doesn't want the house that comes with it, you have the duty to unbuild it.Tanya: Then you mean that if you are testing an airplane and you want to claim a vast space as a test site, and if no one disagrees, then you get the large site, where you can set the rules such as no trespassing (due to danger). Then until someone else also needs the space, you don't need to yield because there is no one to yield to.Fina: Correct.Black: Once a zone is claimed, I think it would make more sense to call it a claimed zone or occupied zone. Common vs Opt-in doesn't seem aligned philosophically.LRRH: How about Common vs Reserved or Chartered?Tanya: I would prefer reserved. A reserved zone becomes an opt-in zone.Black: I think chartered sounds more permanent and reserved sounds more temporary.Fina: I don't have a problem with "claimed".Tanya: I think philosophically, it doesn't matter if it is reserved, claimed, or chartered. The point is participation in such zone is optional.Tanya: So we can simplify into just three main zones for the sake of talking about autonomy: Common, Optional, and Captive.Black: I think that set makes a good summary. Having just three main zones would also make it easier for visual aids.Tanya: Discussion summary so far:
Common: A zone where people may normally enter, camp, or traverse without worry of trespassing.
Optional: A zone with its set of rules where people normally do not need to enter or pass through, other than those who choose to opt in and abide by the zone's rules.
Captive: A zone where people have trouble opting out or escaping from.
Black: I think this is a good summary.Tanya: I will start with that and expand with examples next time.Black: The significance of the common zone is that by default, everyone has the right to be there. All else being equal, anyone who tries to pressure or exclude others from the common zone is a violator of autonomy.Fina: By reciprocative justice, the bullies at the common zone could lose their right to enter the common zone. Black: The significance of the optional zone is that it allows the host to expel unwanted participants at will, which cannot be done in a common zone. Fina: By reciprocative justice, a violator of a host's autonomy at an option zone would lose their right to have an option zone, and if they do not stop themself from intruding other's option zones, they would also lose their right to the connective common zones.Tanya: In other words, violators may get a restrain order around the option zone they have offended, where the zone of the restrain order could overlap with the common zone.Black: The significance of the captive zone is that it describes a zone where a person within may claim that their autonomy is being violated.Fina: By reciprocative justice, a person who holds someone captive loses their right to autonomy and can be held in captivity.Tanya: I think we didn't include the meaning of the zones for Stewardism.Fina: Those might be too much for this node. Maybe another node.Tanya: I think we should mark follow up topics.Tanya: I think this topic is worth three separate Manga pagesBlack: Yes, I agree. But I also think a single page summary would also be handy.Black: Also with the Peace Ranking. Having visual aid would help.
This month I only have one page left before the next bracket. And we haven't made a physical post. So I plan to print and post Zoey's desk.
3B: Is the drawing good enough for posting?
Vivi: The top of P4's hair looks pressed.Vivi: The chair doesn't have enough shading.Vivi: Which part of the picture are you posting? The area under the desk is distracting.3B: I plan to post it as a landscape Manga page and add the text "Let's Quest" on it.Vivi: Please fix P4's hair.Zoey: Could you also add a second strip of zigzag pattern on my top and color by hair tie green?Evelyn: Is the shop where you post a vegan store? If not, it seems intruding to post with the Go Vegan flag.3B: They sell meat flavored ramen.Evelyn: I think we should change the flag. ๐3B: I'll change the text to "Let's Quest".LRRH: The area on the top left seems a little vacant.3B: I think that is not a problem. That is where we could add QR code or text when we use this picture for other purposes.Vivi: The monitor stand is missing shading. And where is the keyboard?LRRH: But right now there is nothing. On the upper left corner.3B: I think it is fine leaving it blank. You don't always need to fill every part of a drawing with something.LRRH: Okay.LRRH: I think the area outside the window could have some tree shade.3B: Zoey do you want tree shade outside your room?Zoey: That would make sense, but my room is at least on the second floor if that matters when you draw it.P4: May I say "Let's go" ?3B: Having both "Let's Quest" and "Let's Go" seems a little repeated.Evelyn: You could have P4 say Let's go in Japanese.3B: Okay, I can do that.3B: I updated and printed...Evelyn: It looks better. ๐3B: I did "Go Quest" instead becuse "Let's" is too long.Zoey: I am posting it.3B: Should this be part of Manga chapter 13?Zoey: I think you can use it as page 00.3B: Okay. Since there is not another yet, I would save the landscape one for page 00.Zoey: Why? I thought you said manga pages had to be protrait. XD3B: What if your pages end up all landscape?Evelyn: Like the Little Nuns book. ๐Zoey: But your album is protrait and protrait pages show better on the phone.3B: Okay, I will make the proper protrait page.3B: Manga chapter 13 now has a 202309301617|node.Vivi: The Magic Bakery logo should be higher.3B: Updated.Evelyn: It is nostalgic. ๐Evelyn: ๐Evelyn: No pressure.Black: Adding rounded corner to the image macro.@Manga is now Rank S7.3B thanks all for the inputs.
StarTree: The chapter number is not only used by manga, but also by Daisy2 in the code.
StarTree: Daisy2 is the JS function that reads the JSON data to display which chapter is updated for the day.StarTree: The JSON data records the chapter number instead of the chapter name. Then another function ChName returns the name to display!Ledia: Doesn't this mean that if we change a chapter name now, it will retroactively change the name in the past?StarTree: Yes it will.Ivy: In general the string code is good practice because it saves record memory and could protentially better support multilanguage or to display related data. So each place should get a place ID. No one needs to know what that ID is except the people writing the code.Tanya: That doesn't fix the confusion of retroactively changing old location names. Ivy: It just means that if you do change the name, assign a new ID. I don't think we have changed any name yet.Tanya: I see.StarTree: Daisy2 is called from a function that has the date, so Daisy2 can be modified to show a different name depending on the date argument.Ivy: There you go.StarTree: StarTree added notes on the Guild Log.StarTree: The chapter number is also used in PinCh. PinCh is a function that stores the URL of each chapter home. It is used in the Teleport Section!Tanya: Ever since we have Quest Board I don't use the Teleport section anymore.LRRH: We need to keep the teleport section because some pages are not fully transitioned to nodes.Ledia: Could we just list them elsewhereLRRH: If you don't use it just don't click on it. ๐ฃStarTree: That was all StarTree wanted to say!StarTree: Slight update to Guild Log schedule tracker.๐LRRH: Actually, which pages have not turned into nodes?
StarTree: @Board is one of them. ๐ญStarTree: @Board still has a Best of the Board section and the Lab section!StarTree: Moving the content of the old lab section to 202302201503|Test Node.LRRH: Please move the best of the board section to PL node for now.StarTree: Done! 202211161002|Place Level@Board is now Rank A7.
3B: 3B wants to draw more and improve. Instead of just drawing what she wants to draw, she would also need to copy other objects or drawings for practice.
3B: Maybe for my quest section, I should clear the reference queue by drawing assets as a form of study.Tanya: I would think it is better to just aim for a functional and adaquetly drawn page, and just make notes on what to do better next time.Tanya: I think there would be a time when you have covered enough topics, or have caught up to the speed of new topics, that you have time left to upgrade the old drawings.3B: You really think I can draw that much?Tanya: Yes.Tanya: That or we resort to using free images. But I think the consensus is that your drawings are a lot cuter. Free images lack the warmth and quirkiness.Evelyn: 3B's drawings are warm and cozy.3B: Okay. There are three S ranked requests right now. Reclamation Corp idea is a title page. Peace Ranking and Zoning are explanatory pages. What would I draw for peace ranking?3B: If the information is shown in powerpoint, it would just be a bullet list of the six ranks, possibly with a definition or explanation on each one.3B: But by conventional powerpoint best practice, each slide shouldn't have so much text, so once I listed the six ranks, that would be all for that slide. Then each rank would need its own slide.Tanya: I think this is different from a slideshow because there is no voice over. Powerpoint used for presentation has such best practice because it is boring to stare at and read text. But what we need should be something like a single page that is quite complete. Similar to what you did for Freedom of Speech manga chapter.Tanya: On one page, Patricia said there are three worlds, then you made a separate page for each world.3B: Isn't that... what I said? I would then need 7 pages for the 6 ranks.LRRH: Two comments:LRRH: 1) Should 3B help design an actual slideshow template? If we are making training material, then it would eventually be Google Slide slide show or we could upload the show to Youtube.LRRH: 2) Didn't we have a Manga page for the peace ranking? It was Peace kebab, although at that time there were only four ranks.Tanya: My idea is that we should add more words to a drawing like the peace kebab, so that someone who looks at the picture can understand what each rank means.3B: Are we still talking about the size and resolution of a 6x4 manga page?Tanya: Yes. I think you can fit enough, with the text smaller for the explanation.Zoey: I think the page for Peace Ranking should be a standalone page, not as part of a conversation. If we are going to evaluate policies that page can be used to show how the policy ranks.Tanya: I think it shouldn't be just the headers, but at least a concise summary so that the page itself is a functional rubric.LRRH: Rubrics is a good word. It sounds like we want to make two configurations of a form. The first form lists the six ranks on the left and the expanations on the right. You could theme it with the S ranking letters S, A, B, C, D, E, and theme it like a classroom. LRRH: The second format would not have the summaries of what each rank means, but the top of the page would summarize the conflict at hand to be resolved, and as people propose solutions, the solution is evaluated and placed on the ranking, maybe with the title or short description of the solution.Evelyn: I think we should start with the first one, because I doubt people would be happy seeing the rank of their idea. ๐LRRH: But the ranking is not final, you could improve it. Tanya: I would think once people get used to seeing it, they would start with the S rank answer right away. I think we can try showing both.3B: If it is a rubric, it is just table and text. Do we still plan to show it on a 6x4 page? Protrait? The drawing does not have links, but if it is a webpage or google slide it can link to the post people expressed the solution.Evelyn: I think we should not rank actual people and their comments unless they opt-in to be ranked. We should use a different character or avatar otherwise. When you look at the picture by itself, the reader shouldn't be able to identify speakers who did not opt-in.Black: For now I think that should not be a webpage, people are wary of clicking on a link. And if I remember correctly Google Slides aren't really friendly to link to. I think the person clicking on such link would worry whether their email address or participation is being monitored.Zoey: For the rubric, could you draw a fantasy world with six levels like those SAO flying islands. The bottom is the Conquest level. 3B: If I draw it like that the stack should be in the middle of the page, then it would be hard to show the explanations.3B: That or could we first confirm what short descriptions we will use for the rubric?LRRH: I think the leaderboard page could be a grid, a solution that is quick and easy would be on the left side, maybe marked with a lightning symbol. A solution that is long or costly would be on the right side, with a long casting time symbol.Tanya: Let's first aim for 6x4 protrait page and start with the short description.๐กTanya: Short descriptions of each rank:
Celebration: Peacemaker supercourse
Cooperation: Teamwork diversity
Coexistence: Live and let live
Competition: Winner decides
Control: Remove the means
Conquest: Remove troublemakers
3B: Those are so short, I could even draw what Zoey suggested. Because the short description could fit under the title of each rank.Tanya: Then could you draft the graphics that go with it?3B: Yes, but Zoey's idea has a very strong RPG theme. Is that okay?Zoey: Let's aim for a poster grade picture good for posting at the Japanese shop. XD3B: Should I intentionally micmic the SAO scene?Zoey: I think it can be original and interesting. You don't have to make it so that people think they are looking at an SAO poster at first glance.LRRH: The progression to the top seems like a journey for humanity. The bottom level could be a volcanic scene.3B: I cannot think of a distinct scene for all of them. Coexistence might be a forest scene, and Celeration might be a starry sky or an idol stage. But what about Cooperation, Competition, and Control?Casey: Cooperation could be a construction site.Zoey: Control could be a maze.Sasha: Then competition can be chess.LRRH: I think the taglines are not descriptive enough. A key point of the competition rank is that people are not cheating or deceiving each other, but the nature of the game is that they are expected to accept that the loser could lose it all, so that makes the situation unstable when losers actually happen.3B: I updated the taglines...LRRH: Okay. They are now not as cryptic.3B: Instead of having just different environment, I think I need to draw people for the scene to be "cute". So for conquest I would draw a king pointing a sword.Zoey: Why does the idea keep changing? XD3B: I am just imaging that the result won't make enough sense.Tanya: Would you mind drafting and letting us see and compare?LRRH: I don't think you have enough space to draw people for six levels.Sasha: For an item scene, Rank 4 competition can be a monopoly game board.3B: Okay. It might take some time to make drafts. Please wait.
It is always challenging.

In what circumstances should a person's driver license be revoked?
Arcacia: This is one of few tasks at the Freedom Plaza quest log that seems easy to clear. ๐
Tanya: An optional zone can set its own rules. But let's first identify why a license is needed in the first place.LRRH: Pedestrians don't need a license. Dog riding doesn't need a license.Casey: Bicycling riding doesn't need a license.Tanya: If you are an employer or a guild master, you could require a person to have a certificate before you let them operate a vehicle.Tanya: Otherwise you would not have done due diligent to lend them something that is potentially unintuitive and dangerous.LRRH: That I agree.Zoey: Then it would be the same as any responsible vehicle provider. But should it be required?Tanya: I think in Arcacianism that would be a self-enforced policy. If you want to get a "responsible provider" badge, then you declares and adheres to that policy.Zoey: Then the issuing agency receives and processes complains or violations and revoke those certificates when the owners are shown to be reckless and need to be recertified.LRRH: An optional zone would require a license if it wants to be responsible for the people who choose to enter.Casey: What about common? Do we agree that in Common we don't need licenses to operate vehicles?Tanya: I think that would be correct. But without license doesn't mean there are no laws being enfored by Stewardism Rangers.Casey: But those "laws" would be applied to specific offenders, not just to everyone just for having no license.Tanya: I believe so. Without proper certificates or license, you can't operate your vehicle in various optional zones. But since they are optional, you don't have to be there to begin with. You could just drive your mobile home around in common safely without a license.Arcacia: How does speed limit works? If you are speeding but no one is startled or hurt, is that okay?Tanya: In convention wisdom, it is hard not to get people's attention and startle them when you are going a lot faster. If you are fast enough to startle people or cause disturbance, such that they have to guard up against you, you would be stepping into infringing their autonomy.Tanya: Theoretically you can go as fast as you want as long as no one would be startled by the conventional common sense.Arcacia: What if your vehicle just look different and people stare at it.Tanya: I think there is a difference between people staring because they are curious versus staring because they feel threatened by them.Arcacia: What if you are a large group of people marching?Tanya: Then you should have heralds and messengers to pre announce your march.Zoey: I think in general if the purpose of your presence is clearly benign then it is not threatening.LRRH: I think this topic needs its own node. Do we already have a node about traffic laws?StarTree: There is a node on 202307202225|Speed Limit!Tanya: Please change the subtitle of that node to Traffic Laws and add blocks about license and startling.StarTree: Done! Tanya: Please add "Operation License" next to driver's license to show we aren't just talking about cars.StarTree: Done! Zoey: Is it okay if the wording is not very concrete? It is not as exact as current traffic laws such as when you can't make a U-turn.Tanya: You can keep all of those laws in an optional zone. But the point is that those laws might not apply in a common zone when there are no roads or there are roads but without any marking. Then it falls back to the guideline that you can do a U-turn whenever you want as long as you are not doing it in a manner that would threaten the others. If you do, you owe them at least that amount of autonomy they spent defending against you.Zoey: It is somewhat acceptable, but if we follow the policy evaluation rubric it might score pretty low in clarity.Tanya: I think we can revisit and improve it when we make the rubric.Black: I take it that if it doesn't violate autonomy, then it is at least Coexistence rank. LRRH: The part where a society rewards developers of safety guideline and certification agency would qualify for Celebration rank, I think.LRRH: If the guideline is too strict to you, you don't have to enter the zone. You could just stay in common.Arcacia: On the other hand if you uphold to such safety standard even outside the optional zone, you could earn safey ambassador credits.Tanya: That might not be a good idea if it makes people drive long distance just for credits. The unnecessary increase in traffic would statistically increase unnecessary accidents.Arcacia: Okay, then just get ambassador credits for training others to be certified.Tanya: That makes sense to me.@Freedom is now Rank B1.
The result this times shows that DeviantArt could have three hits.
Sasha: The rest of the increase is mainly from a Phoneky website that ends up having the Sora Arcacia ring tone.Sasha: Still no hit on actual content.
๐ DeviantArt
Sasha: It seems DeviantArt had 7 hits at one point. So having three hits might not be a big news.
Sasha: But in recent memory I think it only led to one of our pages. Now it leads to three: Chapter 16 03, 05, and 06.Sasha: Those three pages all have the word Arcacianism in the description.
๐บ Monthly YouTube Upload
๐Sasha: StarTree please pick a song and upload to YouTube.
StarTree: Faded Fable has musescore but not youtube. StarTree will post that first!LRRH: Could you also post the slower version of Fort Arsenal?Tanya: And Eternal Night.Zoey: And Vacation XDStarTree: Wee~~!StarTree: StarTree added the other musics from Musecore to inventory.StarTree: Uploading Faded Fable. Uploading Fort Arsenal, slower version. Uploading Eternal Night. Uploading Vacation. Wee~~!StarTree: Making a slower version if Firefly.

Jumping Around
Natalie: The box that we are going through has about 400 cards and we are on the 28th. If we do about 3 each month, it will take ten years. Does anyone have an idea that can make it go faster?
Zoey: Do one every day. XDSasha: Some of the cards just have a definition question. Can we do those first? After that we can just randomly pick the story cards. I think that will be more challenging because the definition wouldn't be as "fresh". Tanya: I like both ideas. But I don't think we can end up doing one every day.Sasha: How many definition cards are there?Natalie: Maybe one-third.Natalie: It would be an interesting question to keep track of which card has been used.Tanya: I would think it is not too difficult to keep just two sorted list.Zoey: How about we do two every day? First a definition, then a scenario.Evelyn: I do like the idea of having a discussion every day.Sasha: Is there a but?Evelyn: No. ๐Natalie: Okay. Let's try what Zoey said and see what happens.
[30] Actus Reus
๐๏ธNatalie: Can merely speaking, with no other act, constitute an "Actus Reus"?
Tanya: No. Unless you are saying a command, casting a spell, or telling a lie, or saying something that should keep secret.Natalie: Tanya is correct. The card's answer is Yes. Examples include defamation, solicitation, conspiracy, false pretenses or perjury. An example is that if you give false witness statement during a trial leading to wrongful execution of the defendant, then you could be guilty of murder.Sasha: I vote for keep going with definitions.
[31] Helping others
๐๏ธNatalie: In general, do you need to act affirmatively for the benefit of others?
Sasha: No. You can just be neutral.Natalie: The card agrees. There is no duty to help other than those specified by the law.Sasha: Don't you feel that definitions are so much quicker? I think in general we should do three in a row. So one more please.
[32] Vicarious Liability
๐๏ธNatalie: What is "Vicarious Liability"?
Zoey: Does it mean if someone committed a crime on your behalf you could be held liable? Natalie: Correct! This usualy happens in employer-employee relationships, where the employer could be liable when the employee commits certain crimes.Zoey: Now all is left is to see whether we can keep it up every day. XDTanya: I don't think that is possible.Zoey: I would think you could still get a point for the chapter. If you want.Sasha: I would definitely do so. But. Why don't we get one more for Evelyn now? She has not answered any.Evelyn: It is not entirely necessary. ๐
[33] Criminal Corp
๐๏ธNatalie: Can a corporation be held criminally liable?
Evelyn: I have heard that a corporation is treated like a person, so Yes? I think I have seen headlines where the title of the case is someone against the corporation, but not any officer of that coporation in particular. And they get a lawyer representing the corporation. So also yes? ๐Natalie: Yes! Such as when the corporation's operations are criminal. When a corporation is held criminally liable, so are the individual decision makers that design or oversee the operation. Sasha: Now is a good time to end.
The daily challenge is on!

This is a discussion in the monthly self-evaluation series where we aim to create a rubric for each evaluation topic.
๐ [B5] Training
Black: Previously we just said that this is about missed training. Our scale can already handle failures. All we need is a new tag, such as TNG for training that is done and TNB for training that is not done. Any comments?
Evelyn: This seems very similar to initiative. Is the new tagging specifically for assigned training?Black: I think an activity can have more than one tag. If it is assigned training, it might only have the TN tag. If you proposed the training, it might have both tags.Ledia: If you needed the training, didn't propose it, and someone else assigned it to you it could also have two tags.Black: Yes.Evelyn: Okay.StarTree: A CAL task has been added to field log!@Whale is now Rank B1.
This is a routine monthly status update for Cardinal Quest.
๐ฏStarTree: There are 8 open quests, 258 quest hours, 30 side quests, 6 prep quests, and 3 unresolved failures remaining!
Tanya: StarTree please process the prep quests.StarTree: Done and updated Cardinal node!Tanya: Please move or add the potion quest to @Cardinal.StarTree: Done!Tanya: Now on to TPK record for Failure Analysis.
2309 Swamp Collision
๐StarTree: This is an on-going double TPK at the time of making this record.
1: During the building of the dock, Black questioned whether the wyverns would collide with the platform as they leave. But together with Vladanya they assumed that the builder team would have checked the clearance.
StarTree: As it turns out, the tail of the wyvern would nick and tower and it did. The tower needed to be redesigned. StarTree: We don't yet know why the tower was designed wrong. There might need to be an update.2: The tower's crystal was found to be different (too old) from what is needed. This could have been checked earlier as there were signs that the crystal seems really old and used.
StarTree: When the crystal did not work, the supplier said that it was the wrong one and would ship us a different one.StarTree: As a result the progress is late compared to schedule, and other parts that require the crystal still need to be verified.Tanya: I think in general we should collect the information before posting. To avoid posting twice. Those following this topic already know the current status. The record activity is for the archive.StarTree: Understood!StarTree: StarTree does not plan to be the one asking why the tower was too tall.Evelyn: I will ask. ๐Black: For countermeasure we already added more checks before takeoff.Tanya: Adding a task that a part check should be added somewhere.Tanya: I think the check should be standard on the quest checklist template.Evelyn: I confirmed that the reason was the tower design was used where the wyverns had shorter tails. ๐Tanya: Thank you.
Tanya thanks all for questing.@Cardinal is now Rank B3.

Adoption
Natalie: There is a concept that due to the way the quest board works, another chapter could claim this for credit. But I have the box. So I am not sure how this works.
Sasha: What I have been doing is that I just choose another chapter and "level it up". When you do that, you would be getting some XP outside your own chapter.Sasha: For example you can choose @Detective to bank your point. Since the topic is kind of related.Tanya: In any case we only have about 20 chapters. If you want to do this everyday, I think we simply don't keep counting.Natalie: To me that would make more sense. Sasha: if I answer it right I am going to claim it. Natalie: That is fine too. ๐
[48] Mens Rea
๐๏ธNatalie: What is Mens Rea?
Sasha: That is the intention to commit a crime. It is part of what is required to convict someone of committing a crime.Natalie: Correct! It literally means "Guilty mind" and the significance is as Sasha said.Sasha: This is way too short for one session. I think we should do one session each day and aim for having three questions each.Evelyn: I am okay with only doing it when there is no other discussion.Sasha: I am okay with doing one question for each participant.Evelyn: ๐
[49] Specific Intent
๐๏ธNatalie: What are the major "specific intent" crimes?
Sasha: No idea.Tanya: Is it a crime where merely the intention to commit a crime is already a crime, when the plan is not carried out? An example would be conspiracy, where you could charge and convict someone of the crime when it has not been activated.Natalie: Correct! The card gives 10 examples where conspiracy is one of them. Natalie: Burglary, Attempt, Forgery, False pretense, Larceny, Embezzlement, Premeditated murder (first degree), Assault, Conspiracy and Solicitation, and Kidnapping (for ransom). The Mnemonic is Baffle Pack.Casey: That sounds like all crimes.
[50] General Intent
๐ฏNatalie: What is the difference between specific intent and general intent?
Casey: Specific intent is enough to get someone convicted and general intent is not. For example, if you are just really angry and you could kill the next person that shows up, but everyone sees that you are angry and avoid you, so you didn't end up hurting anyone, then you cannot be convicted of attempted murder.Natalie: I think that is fairly close. General Intent means you have the intention to do something that is illegal, but not trying to accomplish a wrongful result.Natalie: The example from the card is when you want to borrow something but do so illegally, then you cannot be convicted of stealing because you intented to return it. The concept of general vs specific intent is an older concept that some jurisdictions no longer use that, but uses a four-tier system: purpose, knowledge, recklessness, and negligence.Casey: So, should the angry person in my example be guilty of attempted murder?Tanya: I think no. If he is not pursuing anyone but merely violently holding his ground, that should be just a hysterical display of emotional outburst. Not attempted murder.Evelyn: I think if he was not provoked or cornered into doing so (having no excuse), then he could be guilty of recklessness. I think if others need to avoid him and form a perimeter, then he has violated the bystanders' autonomy. He is guilty. ๐Evelyn: Guilty for being reckless, but not murder.Natalie: There are about 6 more definition cards on this subject.Evelyn: Okay. ๐

The law game continues.
Natalie: Please be aware that the content may not be appropriate for children, and that we play this game from a philosophical standpoint. The answers are not meant to be representative of all jurisdictions.
[52] Recklessness
๐ฏNatalie: Is reckless misconduct a sufficient mens rea for a specific intent crime?
Casey: No. Last time we said specific intent crime includes first degree murder. If you are just reckless and ends up killing someone then it is not premediated.Natalie: The card agrees!
[53] Four Tiers
๐ฏNatalie: How are the four tiers of mental states used in describing culpability?
Sasha: Last time we said the four states are purpose, knowledge, recklessness and negligence.Tanya: Premediated murder requires purpose. I think by tiers, you mean what kind of mental state is required for someone to be guilty of a given crime. In this scale the lowest requirement would be negligence.Tanya: If a crime is defined to require only negligence, then you could be convicted even if you are just careless.Natalie: Correct! And in the Model Penal Code, if no mental state is specified, recklessness is the minimum level.
[54] Purposeful
๐ฏNatalie: Under what circumstances is a person said to have acted intentionally or purposefully?
Sasha: They should be well aware of what is expected to happen when they do it, and they are conscious when they do it.Natalie: I'll be picky this time because what Sasha describes is Knowledge. For Purpose, you also need the subjective judgement that the actor intents the result to happen, not just that they know that something bad might happen.Sasha: Fair enough. Good run.
Tanya: Casey do you want to claim it this time?Casey: I guess.@Treasure is now Rank B2.This is a streak of 3 days! ๐

Natalie: Please be aware that the content may not be appropriate for children, and that we play this game from a philosophical standpoint. The answers are not meant to be representative of all jurisdictions.
[55] Recklessness
๐๏ธNatalie: Is recklessness determined by an objective or a subjective standard?
Tanya: As it stands I think it is subjective.Natalie: The card says that it is both. The objective part is whether the offender is taking a substantial and unjustifiable risk. The subjective part is whether the offender is conscious of their disregarding the risk.
[56] Recklessly
๐๏ธNatalie: Under what circumstances is a person said to act recklessly?
Sasha: Being a threat to others where the purpose of their action is not to be a threat, but they do so disregarding others' safety.Natalie: The card doesn't use "threat" or "safety" but "risk. A person is said to be reckless when they take substantial and unjustifiable risk. The risk being taken can be on themselves.
[57] Presumption
๐๏ธNatalie: Can criminal intent be established by presumption?
Black: I think no. Otherwise we don't need any evidence for motives.Natalie: It is No for specific intent crimes, but yes for general intent crimes. In general intent crimes, the intent is presumed from the fact that they did the act of the crime. Even with the presumption of intent, the prosecution still need to prove the required mental state beyond a reasonable doubt.
Tanya: Black may claim this one because I think I will be here for almost all of them.Black: I don't think this quest is really related to @Whale.Sasha: You could think of it as a sign of supporting a fellow chapter.Black: Okay.Tanya: And since the session has happened 4 times, it can be upgraded to Rank S.@Whale is now Rank B2.@Paladin is now Rank S1.This is a streak of 4 days! ๐

[58] Strick Liability
๐๏ธNatalie: What is a "strick liability" criminal offense?
Evelyn: Is this a case where the offender broke a rule but no one is actually getting hurt?Natalie: It is close! It is an offense that requires no proof of culpability, and usually regulatory in nature such as weapon registrations and license requirements. The significance of this type of crime is that some defenses such as mistake of fact is not available.
[59] Motive
๐๏ธNatalie: Is a criminal motive a necessary element of a crime?
Tanya: Not always. Some crimes don't require a motive, such as actions that are considered criminal negligence.Natalie: Correct! Your motive could be innocent while your action constitutes a crime.
[67] Party Categories
๐๏ธNatalie: What are the four categories of parties to a felony in common law?
Sasha: Do you mean the offender, the victim, the prosecutor, and the defense attorney?Natalie: All four parties would be included in what you call an offender.Natalie: They are: Principals in the first degree; Principals in the second degree; Accessories before the fact; and Accessories after the fact.Natalie: Many states see no distinction between the first three, and the last one could be called an obstructor of justice or harborer of a felon.Sasha: Could we get one more or until I get it right?
[68] First Degree Principal
๐๏ธNatalie: What is a "principal in the first degree"?
Sasha: It is someone who plans and executes the crime.Natalie: It is more about that they did the crime, as opposed to someone who was merely helping at the crime.Sasha: These are getting harder.Natalie: Then you are learning. ๐

Quest Society: First what possessions can be inherited should be defined. For example, a zone might have lodging only for people would work there. The lodging right is not necessarily inheritable to the former resident's relatives. A person's quest credits are not inheritable.
Gaia Shares: Gaia shares are inheritable in the sense that a successor may choose which piece of land to keep within their person maximum allowance.
Succession Order
Quest Society: For possessions that can be inherited, if the method of distribution is not specified in a will, it follows the usual order based on family distance: Spouse, Children and grandchildren, Parents, Siblings, Grandparents, Children and Grandchildren of decedent's grandparents, more distant relatives.
StarTree: Currently the top priority at the GitHub Migration node is functionality catchup. And the first request is "Roll Call".

Could you also make the text box right aligned? I want to try and see.StarTree: Shorten input box, right align, make button for roll call. Update Roll Call node. Done!LRRH: Please also add a button to load the quest board.StarTree: Upgrade Index to avoid duplicate definition. Adding button.StarTree: The Refresh function of the quest board is not working at GitHub. it is being fixed.Vivi: Please also make the leaves fit within the div.StarTree: Fixed!LRRH: Next is the calendar button to show the current calendar.StarTree: Done! But the table style is not correct and the header is missing. They are being fixed.LRRH: The way the GitHub website works is a lot better than before. I like the column panels, and how when you click on a link it just opens another section without closing the existing one.StarTree: Fixed table spacing. StarTree: StarTree tried something for the calendar header, but it seems that there needs to be a separate calendar viewer node. This is because the old calendar has a feature where you could click the arrow button to switch to a previous month. But right now if you do so, the title of the display will not change and still show the old month.LRRH: I think each calendar should be its own node.StarTree: The arrow keys don't work properly right now, and the smallest change StarTree can think of is to create a Calendar viewer node to make sure that the content of the archive is still compatible between GitHub and Blogspot. LRRH: Okay.StarTree: Done.LRRH: Thank you.

[69] Accessory before the Fact
๐๏ธNatalie: What is the difference between a principal in the second degree and an accessory before the fact?
Sasha: An accessory doesn't necessarily know what the principal is trying to do. For example, the accessory could be a weapon dealer giving the principal an illegal weapon, but doesn't know who they are trying to attack.Natalie: In modern definition there is no difference. They can both be the one who hires, counsels, or commands the felony. In the old definition, an accessory before the fact may also know about the purpose and specifics of the crime, but they are not present at the crime, while a principal in the second degree is present.
[70] First vs Second
๐๏ธNatalie: What is the difference in punishment between first and second degree principals?
Sasha: I want to say conceptually there should be no difference. If you are present and assisting, the crime should be just as much as doing it yourself.Natalie: Correct! There is no difference.
[71] Accessory after the Fact
๐ฏNatalie: What are the elements required for an accessory after the fact?
Zoey: They know about the crime and knowingly does something to destroy evidence, hide the culprit, or delay the investigation.Natalie: Correct! They know about the crime, then help the culprit, or hinders the process of justice.
Zoey: @Seed will claim this one. Although it is strange that we are doing this.Zoey: The topic is clearly an @Paladin topic, and I don't mind getting some XP in @Paladin. Shouldn't we all just bank the credit at @Paladin?Tanya: Since Natalie is keeping track of the streak, when it gets to 16 in this month, it would rank up to SS.Sasha: And I repeat that when you "claim" credit for this round, it means that you are supporting @Paladin.Zoey: That concept is hard to understand since the way it is logged, I would be assigning an XP from Paladin to Seed. Then how is that helping? XDSasha: You are helping the content to be filled, since Paladin by itself only has one slot for it. Zoey: But the slots are all made up. XD You can do as much as you want and get XP. Tanya: As I said, if we decide to do it every day, we don't need to copy it at the quest log to every chapter, unless you as the chapter master want to assist by making sure that the quest is part of what you do monthly.Sasha: That and it is free XP for your chapter. And you didn't take any XP from Paladin. Paladin doesn't level up by those ordinary XP. The Law Game already used one slot. The next increase in rank would be at streak 16. Since Natalie is already counting the streak, if you don't log it to another chapter, there is no "record" that other chapters are helping Paladin to finish the stack of cards.Tanya: It is still up to you whether you want to show it as part of your chapter's activity. In this case I would think @Seed is relevant because @Seed is also about the law and policies.Sasha: To me it doesn't really matter if it is relevant. I would just add it to another chapter if I run out of slots. Like how we do Layout Update. It doesn't really matter who did it or which node is done. Almost every chapter has a slot for it, then it results in 20+ updated nodes per month.LRRH: Actually... It looks like we are way ahead of schedule despite we added two new chapters last month. Maybe we should add more chapters.Zoey: Of course more would get done when adding a chapter really means having another active member looking for things to do to complete their monthly chapter rank. XD@Seed is now Rank B3.This is a streak of 6 days! ๐

LRRH: @Home will be managed by Kisa and it take quests related to the physical guild house from @Guild. While @Guild wil be more about the peacemaker guild, not the guild house.
Casey: Would @Home take the yard quest?Kisaragi: Yes.Casey: But I want to keep the Maintenance Quest.LRRH: It doesn't really matter where the quest is as long as someone is still checking each month and doing them as needed.Casey: Maintenance quest is on demand, there might not be any activity in a month. So I am just letting it be in @Treasure for now.
๐ฏ Let's Play Something
Sasha: Let's play something. CSI or a new game?
Casey: How many cases are in CSI?Sasha: Eight. We played one.Tanya: If there is a slot for old game and another slot for new game then you would do both.Sasha: There is always a slot for new game, and there are more slots for the same game. My question is just what do people want to do in this fine afternoon.Black: I would prefer CSI.Sasha: CSI That is. @Cardinal.
This is Magic Bakery plays CSI: Case 2!
Sasha: The game is rated for teens and up. We don't follow the official rules.
๐จ Case 2: Last Dance
Cardinal: Magic Detective is called to investigate a murder at a nightclub. As they arrive, Cardinal fills them in on the details.
Victim:Cardinal: The victim is lying on her left in the center of the dance floor in a pool of blood with one gunshot wound on her upper left chest near the shoulder. Cardinal: The victim is a former bookkeeper of the nightclub.Best Friend:Cardinal: The Best Friend is the victim's roommate and went to the nightclub with her tonight. She says that the dance floor was very loud and had a smoke effect. She lost sight of the victim for a moment, and found that she was unconscious on the dance floor.NightClub Owner:Cardinal: The Owner says that the victim left the nightclub as a bookkeeper to work as a manager at a casino.Victim's Purse:Cardinal: In the victim's purse was a letter written by the victim to the casino owner telling him that an employee has been scamming the casino.Alleged Scammer:Cardinal: It is not known at the moment whether the alleged scammer was on scene. Most of the nightclub goers had fled before detectives arrived.Cardinal: Detectives, please describe your move.Tanya: Is video footage out of the question due to the fog effect?Cardinal: Tanya sees that there are no camera looking at the dance floor, and confirmed with the owner that there was a smoke effect on the dance floor. The floor was packed. It was unlikely that anyone would be recording instead of dancing. However, there were cameras at the entrance.Cardinal: ( I am using the hat icon when further information would involve revealing a card. )Zoey: I look for physical evidence, such as bullet casing and things on or around the victim.Cardinal: Zoey starts elemental trace and finds a casing, then finds a gun in the dumpster behind the nightclub.Zoey: It seems obligatory to look for fingerprints.Cardinal: Zoey sends the casing and the gun to the lab for analysis.Zoey: Were the casing and gun the only physical evidence left on scene?Cardinal: ( I am going to change the meaning of the dice roll. When I say please roll 2+, it means please roll two dice, and if either is a plus, keep rolling until you get a minus. However, if both of them are minues, keep rolling until you get a plus. )Cardinal: Zoey please roll 2+.Zoey: Epic failure mode is ON. XDZoey: โโโCardinal: Near the victim, Zoey sees a small capped plastic bottle of liquid. The label on the bottle says that it is whiskey.Zoey: I guess I will bag it also in case the victim turns out to be drugged also.Ledia: The alledged scammer has an obvious motive. Ledia will find the scammer for questioning.Cardinal: Ledia learns from personnel records that the alledged scammer is the head of security at the casino. According to the letter in the victim's purse, he has been robbing the casino by giving phony pay-offs to confederate gamblers at the card tables. Ledia finds the home address of the scammer, and his previous employment record as a cop.Black: I think the most important clue among these right now is the fingerprints on the gun, and whether we could get gunshot residue on any of the suspects.Tanya: I think we need an autopsy because a gunshot to the shoulder is not normally fatal.Zoey: A little meta gaming, but: If the person who shot at her is not the same person who killed her, then on the dance floor there were two murderers, since you can't yet argue that the person who shot at her did not intend to kill her also. I think these games normally don't have two murderers.Tanya: But in common law, if the bullet is not the cause of death, the shooter would be an attempt murderer, but the game is asking for the actual murderer. James: James arrives to take the body.Cardinal: James please roll 1+ for perception placement.James: โโโโCardinal: James is proud of his speed in bagging and loading the body back for autopsy.Zoey: We definitely missed something. XDJames is recognized for Confidence Rank A and Perception Rank DJames: James is known to himselfas the fastest learner he knows.Sasha: I talk to the best friend to learn anything else I can.Cardinal: Sasha talks to the best friend and learns that they have been roommates for one and a half years, and the best friend recently helped the victim get a job at the casino, where the best friend is a card dealer. Today was the victim's day off, and she called the best friend at work several times, asking her to go to the nightclub with her. The victim's phone is still in her purse.Sasha: This is strange, as if she knew she was going to a dangerous place and wanted a bodyguard. I think we should check her call record to see who else she had arranged to meet at the nightclub.Cardinal: Detectives, please decide on your next move. Cardinal: If there is no strong preference, the clues will be revealed in the same order they were unlocked, starting with the camera footage.Tanya: We only used six clues last time, out of a limit of 12 set by Sasha. I think we should start with the autopsy on the cause of death.Zoey: Does James get to roll again for autopsy? A Rank D autopsy could be bad. XDTanya: True.Cardinal: James, do you plan to do the autopsy yourself?James: Of course!Sasha: Cardinal, what happens if an autopsy fails? Do we get a second chance, possibly with another ME, or do we just lose the clue?Cardinal: If the roll is bad, you won't get a clue from that attempt and it won't cost you a clue. A clue could be lost if your first roll is very bad, or if you as a team fails on a retry.Sasha: Okay. That sounds... fair?Zoey: No. XD It means there is sudden death if James fails really bad on the first roll. XDTanya: May I assist James in autopsy? I will watch and put on a pause if anything seems strange.James: As Tanya follows James back to Autopsy, James feels flattered that his fame has attracted such an attentive admirer.Cardinal: James, Tanya, please roll 1+ each.James: โโโโโโZoey: OMG XDTanya: โโโโโโโโโโZoey: Saved by the tail! XD
๐ [1] Autopsy
Cardinal: Tanya attentively and diplomatically shadowed James as he performed the autopsy. Together, James has come to the conclusion that he identified that the cause of death was not the gunshot wound, but blunt-force trauma to the victim's right temple.
Cardinal: The shape of the head wound was strange.Cardinal: A piece of glass was found at the head wound.Cardinal: Blood sampe of the victim was collected for toxicology screening.Cardinal: Tanya please roll 1+.Tanya: โโโCardinal: As James congratulates himself for the thorough findings, Tanya finds himself exhaused from the session.Tanya is out of mana. She is considered KO'ed.James is recognized for Autopsy Rank D.Tanya is recogonized for Diplomacy Rank A, Observation Rank A, Shadowing Rank A.Zoey: Way to take one for the team! XDCardinal: Detectives, please decide your next move.Black: Now that we know the gun is probably not a murder weapon, we need to identify what hit the victim on the head.LRRH: Can I use my dog for that? If something touched her head or hair my dog can trace it.Cardinal: Red please roll 3+.Cardinal: ( Added link to dice information from the dice roller node. )LRRH: โโโโ
๐ [2] Murder Weapon
Cardinal: Little Red Riding Hood rode her dog to the questioning room.
Cardinal: Sirius stopped at the best friend's right high heel shoe, where a declorative glass stone is missing.Cardinal: Red, what do you plan to say or do?LRRH: Is the room being recorded?Cardinal: Roll 1 die please.LRRH: โCardinal: You are at the HQ, the questioning room is being recorded.LRRH: I ask Kisa to bring a change of cloths for her because we need her clothing for evidence.Cardinal: โโCardinal: @Kisaragi please roll 2+.Kisaragi: โโโCardinal: Kisa finds the best friend's shoe dirty but suppresses her urges to clean it right away. Cardinal: Kisa now has the best friend's clothing (and shoes) as evidence. Red is recognized for Follow Scent Rank A.Kisaragi is recognized for Perception Rank C.Cardinal: Detectives, please decide your next move.Sasha: I think we are missing a motive. Maybe the best friend is part of the scam. Maybe the victim was afraid that the scammer is following her that night, so she called her best friend to pick her up at the dance floor to go home together. But she didn't know that the best friend is actually also part of the scam. When the best friend found out what she was afraid about, the best friend and the scammer killed her together.Ledia: Highly possible.Cardinal: Please describe what you would do next.Sasha: I check the best friend's or the scammer's financial records.Cardinal: Sasha please roll 2+.Sasha: โโโโ
๐ [3] Financial Records
Cardinal: Sasha checked the best friend's financial records and finds that she is at the brink of personal bankruptcy.
Sasha: That's it? What is she spending money on? Anything unusual about her income?Cardinal: Sasha sees that the best friend has a lot of debts, such as credit card debts. Sasha could not find transaction record where the best friend paid the victim rent where they lived together for 18 months. On the other hand, the victim has a stellar credit record. Apparently her work at the nightclub allowed her to pay for rent and college, which she graduated from and was offered a management job at the casino.Sasha: It doesn't seem like the best friend is trying to kill the victim for her money, and if she was inolved in the scam, it doesn't see that the scam is very profitable.Ledia: It could be enough to keep herself from going bankrupt. If she is in it, she wouldn't want the victim to bust her scammer complice.Tanya: Our motive is weak.Black: If we have already found that her shoe was in the victim's head, how important is the motive for the arrest warrant?Tanya: The actual game is won by identifying the three relevant cards corresponding to the means, motive, and opportunity. The means could be the shoes. The opportunity could be the phone calls. The fact that the best friend is nearly bankrupt is not a good motive because killing the victim won't help her. We need something more definite to tie her to the scam. Zoey: Maybe what we need is the best friend's phone record. Or, where is the scammer? None of us have seen him. XDCardinal: Please assign someone to check the phone records.Sasha: I appoint, Zoey, Ledia, and StarTree to tripple check the records. There should be no way for this to fail.Zoey: XDCardinal: Zoey, Ledia, @StarTree, please each roll 2+.Zoey: โโโLedia: โโโโโโโStarTree: โโโโโ
๐ [4] Call Records
Cardinal: The detectives checked the call records of the best friend and the scammer for any pattern, and found that there were calls from the victim's home phone to the scammer's home phone. Crosschecking the time of the calls show that they were made when the victim was at work.
Ledia: It looks like we have two murderers to arrest.Tanya: We don't have evidence tying the scammer to the murder.Sasha: We have evidence. We just haven't revealed the card. Those are just lab results we are waiting on.Tanya: If you want to arrest both you need at least two more cards to confirm that the gun is the one that shot the victim, and that the shooter was the scammer.Zoey: What if the owner was the one who shot the victim? XDLedia: Then the scammer is "innocent" for the murder.Tanya: I don't think the owner would choose to kill someone on his own dance floor, then dump the gun in his own dumpster. Sasha: Okay, it seems that if we keep going for the second murderer we would just be dragging on the game. Should we 1) guess now, 2) quickly reveal the clues from what we already have in evidence then decide, or 3) keep playing in another session?Ledia: I think we could keep going, we only used 4 out of 12 clues that Sasha said we could use.Zoey: But if the game is designed for just finding the main murderer, you won't know whether there are cards to arrest the second murderer. Those clues could just be in the solution.Ledia: But Cardinal knows the solution. You can play directly at the solution.Black: I haven't done much so I will first review the security camera footage.Cardinal: Black please roll 2+. Then we will continue next session. Black: โโโโโZoey: No! XDZoey is recognized for Investigation Rank B.Ledia is recognized for Investigation Rank A, Diligence Rank B.StarTree is recognized for Investigation Rank A.Black is recognized for Footage watching Rank D.Black: At least it is a niche skill.Sasha: Aren't we supposed to "watch" the footage with facial recognition?Zoey: Send it to our Abby. XDCardinal: To be continued.

[72] Compounding a Crime
๐๏ธNatalie: What does componding a crime consist of?
Sasha: Does it mean doing an action that is criminal for more than one crime, or committing a crime where the steps to it are also criminal. Such as when you stole a weapon then used the weapon to attack someone, then stole a car to get away, and do a hit-and-run while getting away.Natalie: It is completely off base! To compoung a crime means choosing not to prosecute, give evidence, or report a felony for a return of a payment of any kind.
[73] When to Quit
๐๏ธNatalie: At what point can an accessory before the fact withdraw from the crime to avoid criminla liability if the crime ends up completed?
Zoey: If they report the crime when it is still on-going. XDNatalie: That is correct in some cases! If you haven't done anything material, you could just tell the other criminal parties that you don't want to be involved. If you had done something material such as helping some of the criminals, you must either withdraw the aid, prevent its use, or notify the authorities when there crime can still be stopped.
[89] Inchoate Offense
๐๏ธNatalie: What are inchoate offenses?
Sasha: Never heard of this.P4: Is it when you use up all the chocolate from the fountain?Zoey: XDNatalie: Inchoate offenses are offenses that are crimes even when the intented action or result has not happened. They are Attempt, Conspiracy, and Solicitation.
P4: P4 wants to join this quest more.Sasha: @Music can claim this one.@Music is now Rank S10.Zoey: XDZoey: Why so high?Tanya: I think that made a record. I don't think any chapter had ever done two digits.Sasha: Most of @Music quests are also unique quests.Ledia: There is no point splitting a chapter if you can do all of it.Sasha: Okay.

I did make some drafts for peace ranking but...
๐ฏ Powerpoint
3B: This is now after the fact, but we ended up making powerpoints with mainly just text and simple shapes for the peace paradigm ranking visual aid. There seems to be no need to draw something for that now. At least that is no longer a priority.
3B: But it would be good if we have a new picture for October. Tanya: This is probably not good enough for the calendar, but for zoning a simple visual map of different zones would be good.Tanya: Green for common, yellow for option, and red for captive zones.3B: I think it is better if you first draft the page in Powerpoint so we know what space is left for the map. It would also help if you outline the map with any special feature you want to talk about. Then I can just line and color.Tanya: I see.Tanya: I drafted something. Lake Pirates and the Rogue Mining Camp are red zones. Forest and Camp Site are green zones. Other named places are yellow zones, but other than those, the map is mostly green zone.3B: Okay, I will draw the map. Do I understand correctly that the map itself should be in grey scale, since we are going to color the zones.Tanya: Yes.3B: Please wait...
It is always challenging.

[90] Solicitation
๐๏ธNatalie: What is the common law crime of solicitation?
Zoey: Asking people to commit a crime, possibly with payment of some sort. XDNatalie: It is correct! Payment is not necessary, and the crime needs to be a specific intent crime against the public welfare.
[91] Conspiracy
๐๏ธNatalie: What are the elements of the common law conspiracy?
P4: Is it about hiding the truth and plotting against the people or the government?Tanya: Knowingly preparing or hiding a plan of criminal activity.Natalie: The definition has more to do about the group, that there is an agreement between at least two people who intentionally entered to achieve the agreement's objective.
[95] Conspirator Mental State
๐๏ธNatalie: What mens rea is required for conspiracy?
Tanya: Purpose.Natalie: Correct! It is the intention to enter into a agreement to commit the unlawful act as a group.
Tanya: We all have this quest in our chapter. I think it is okay if we don't bump any chapter.Zoey: That's fine with me. XDThis is a streak of 8 days! ๐

[96] Accomplice vs Conspirator
๐๏ธNatalie: What is the difference between an accomplice and a conspirator?
Tanya: I think a conspirator personally wants the criminal result, while an accomplice does not necessary agree or wants the criminal result, but assist anyway.Natalie: Correct! Also, an accomplice is liable only when the crime is completed, while a conspirator would be liable when the crime is still being contemplated.
[97] Express
๐๏ธNatalie: Is a conspirator required to have expressed their agreement?
LRRH: I think no. It should be enough if they communicated and formed an implicit agreement.Natalie: Correct! It can be inferred from the circumstance and conduct for the alledged conspirators.
[98] Conspiracy
๐๏ธNatalie: Why is conspiracy considered a particularly dangerous crime?
Zoey: Because the government is afraid of people overthrowing itself. XDNatalie: The card's answer is just because more than one person is involved so it benefits from organization, division of labor, and peer pressure in following through with the crime.Zoey: Okay. But I think a criminal gang is not necessary a conspiracy, at least in my definitions.Ledia: A criminal gang doesn't necessary keep its plans or objectives a secret.Natalie: I think the card's definition of conspiracy is less colorful. It doesn't seem to require secrecy. It is different from the common dictionary definition where a conspiracy is almost the same as treason to one's country.
Tanya: Red and Ledia are both new. If you want to claim this session.LRRH: I don't think you need to have played to "claim" it. You could just add it to your quest list like a todo list.Zoey: But in that case it would still just be a todo, not a completed quest. XDLRRH: Okay.LRRH: So, when I claim it, I would still log Natalie as the doer, correct? Because she is still the host. Zoey: That would be what I do.@Guild is now Rank A3.Natalie: I think you may also do both, because you are marking it on your quest board section.LRRH: I don't feel like I should get a point for that.This is a streak of 9 days! ๐

[99] Organized Conspiracies
๐ฏNatalie: What are two ways in which large conspiracies are considered to be organized?
Sylvia: Division of labor, command structure, transactions, regularity?Natalie: Correct about the command stucture! The two ways are chain relationship and wheel relationship.
[100] Liability
๐๏ธNatalie: When will a conspirator be liable for the acts of a fellow conspirator?
Arcacia: If the fellow conspirator is acting within the agreement of the conspiracy.Natalie: Correct! That and when the crimes are foreseeable by the conspiracy.
[101] Supplier Cases
๐๏ธNatalie: What are factors in supplier cases or supplier conspiracy?
Tanya: That both the sellers and buyers are part of the conspiracy?Sasha: And those who do the transportation and bookkeeping?P4: And people who advertise and look for buyers or sellers?Natalie: This question is more about what makes a supplier case a conspiracy.Casey: That the thing being sold is illegal.Tanya: That the supplier knows what the buyer is buying them for (for a conspiracy)Natalie: Correct! even if the supplier denies having an agreement, here are some factors that could make the supplier liable: High quantity of sales, continuity of the seller/buyer relationship, seller's initiative, the nature of the goods, secretive practices such as failure to keep regular business records, inflated charges, lack of legitimate use for the goods, and seriousness of the criminal objective.
Tanya: This time we've got Sylvia and Arcacia.Arcacia: Sylvia came first!@Tavern is now Rank S4.This is a streak of 10 days! ๐

[102] Overt Act
๐ฏNatalie: Do you need to commit an overt act to be found guilty of conspiracy?
Tanya: I think no. Your invovlement could all be in secrecy.Natalie: That is traditionally true, but some states now require an overt act by at least one of the conspirators.
[103] Overt Act 2
๐๏ธNatalie: For states that require an overt act to hold someone liable for conspiracy, does the overt act need to be criminal?
Black: If conspiracy itself is already a crime, then the overt act shouldn't need to be criminal.Natalie: Correct! The overt act is only to prove that the conspiracy exists. Examples of overt act include making a phone call, attending a meeting, giving money or item from one conspirator to another.
[124] Legal Impossibility
๐๏ธNatalie: Can you defend a conspiracy charge by legal impossibilty?
Zoey: First of all, what is legal impossibility? XDStarTree: It is when you think you are doing something illegal but it is actually legal!Tanya: Say you are in a conspiracy to posion the village by dumping poison into a well, but someone knew your plan and swapped your poison with clean water. I think you should still be liable to the conspiracy even if your actual action (putting clean water in the well) is legal.Natalie: Tanya is correct! But the card notes that legal impossibility is a valid defense for Attempts. Which we know would also be illegal according to reciprocative justice.Zoey: Doesn't attempted murder means the victim doesn't die? Doesn't that mean impossibility is not a valid defense for attempted murder?Natalie: The senario Tanya described is called "Factual Impossibility", not "Legal Impossibility."Natalie: Legal Impossibility is when the defendant complete all the acts and got the intenteded result, but unknown to the defendant, the completed and intended result is lawful.Tanya: So if the defendant incorrectly thought that dumping clean water into the well would kill everyone in the village and did so, he cannot be found guilt of attempted murder even when he has the guilty mind and guilty act?Natalie: The act of adding clean water to a well would not satisfy actus rea because that action is legal. There is only mens rea when the defendant believes that clean water is poisonous.Tanya: To me that doesn't seem right. Society should have the means to catch criminals red handed when they act on their malicious beliefs, even when their beliefs are incorrect. For example, if a voodoo user pushes pins onto a voodoo dool believing that it would cause harm to the actual target, the user should be liable for attempted assault.Natalie: But there is no intended result in this case, so this is no legal impossibility. There is no causality between the pin being pushed into the voodoo doll and the actual person's wellbeing.Tanya: Then in that case, is the voodoo user guilty of attempted assault? Natalie: I think that would be a different class of crime, maybe curses. And you could interpret that in most societies, curses are lawful. Your opinion may vary. Then you are in the realm of legal impossibility. The defendant wished ill for someone, and complete the ritual that they believe would bring great harm to the victim. But, in the society, such rituals are lawful. Therefore, the defendant cannot be found guilty even if the victim in fact dies of sudden and unknown causes promptly after the completion of the ritual.Tanya: I see.Black: I think that was a good explanation.Tanya: But why is it that the same act would be defensible for an Attempt, but not for a Conspiracy? If I cast the voodoo ritual by myself, that would be an attempt and legal impossibility says I am innocent because voodooing is lawful. But if I cast with another person then I would be guilty for conspiracy of voodooing?Natalie: Actually, I think in that case it doesn't matter how many people are casting the ritural. If voodooing is not a crime at all, there is no conspiracy charge even if you group mistakes that to be something illegal.Natalie: That doesn't answer why if a person tries to do something illegal by themself wouldn't place any guilt onto them. Tanya: But it means legal impossibility can be applied in both types.Natalie: I am having a problem mapping the examples I know to the example of voodooing. The example I know is bribing. Suppose Ann tries to bribe Bob thinking that he is an official, but Bob is actually not, then Ann would not be liable for attempted bribery, but both Ann and Bob would be liable for conspiracy becayse bribery is a crime. Natalie: In our case, voodooing is not a crime, then Ann would be innocent even if she and Bob mistakenly think that it is illegal and did it as a group.Black: I think we are missing the name for a third type of impossibility.Zoey: I think if you are conspiring to break some laws, then you could be found guilty just for the that intention. Tanya: My point was, why does it matter if you are planning to do illegal things alone or with others.Zoey: I don't have a good answer. It could be a bug in the law for all I know. XDBlack: The reason might be that in a traditionally authoritarian state, if you allow "auto-conspiracy", the state could too easily charge people for conspiracy, especially when there might be no overt-act required. It would turn into the state vs the individual where the state argues that the individual wanted to commit a crime, and the invididual defendant says they did not. Black: If you require a conspiracy to have at least two people, then even if the state wants to frame an individual, the state has to sacrifice a false witness to be a co-conspirator.Natalie: I think, since we know that this is a grey area, a more important question is what do you think should happen? What do you think the law should be?Tanya: I think a person, even by themself, would be guilty of "trying to something unlawful" even though they don't know what exactly is unlawful that they could do.Zoey: But isn't that thought policing? How do you charge something for just having criminal thoughts when the "crimes" they are fantasing to do are actually legal? What evidence would you need to convict someone for that? And what punishment do you want to apply when they haven't actually done anything to violate other's autonomy? You are not violating others autonomy when you are just fantasizing being the villain when you didn't actually do anything.Tanya: Then according to you, should conspiracy not be a crime? You could argue that the group is just larping as villains when they haven't done anything.Black: I think in terms of gradiant, when you go from fantasizing yourself to fantasizing with others, the seriousness has increased.Zoey: I am leaning toward not guilty even if you fantasize as a group. I am talking about the common zone. In an optional zone you do you.Tanya: Suppose Ann is fantasizing invading an optional zone B, at what scale or what would see need to do to be liable of violating zone B's autonomy?Zoey: I think if she declares war on Zone B, or have intruded Zone B then she would be violating B's autonomy. Those are factual actions and have nothing to do with her fantasy.Tanya: What if she is organizing a group and they discuss how to invade Zone B, can Zone B act out of self-defense?Black: I think it highly depends on whether they put a disclaimer and how they maintain a non-threatening actual relationship with Zone B. If you make people have to have a reasonable concern over their safety then you are liable of violating their autonomy. If your plan is realistic, and easy to mobilize, then Zone B has just cause to do a preemptive strike. So it comes down to, if you want to expose the vulnerabilities of an optional zone, you need the optional zone's persmission. Zoey: I agree with Black. Tanya: But according to what Black just said, if the plans and discussion are secret, then it would be outside Zone B's knowledge, and it would not have violated their autonomy because Zone B would have nothing to react to. Suppose Cid is a spy from Zone B and learned the discussion from Ann's group. Is Zone B justified to strike Ann's group?Zoey: I think no. Then they it would be Cid and Zone B harassing Ann's optional group. Cid and Zone B can act only if there is evidence that Ann's group is making substantial moves to actually invade Zone B, but just fantasizing about it.Tanya: What is Ann's group publishes its discussion findings on how likely an invasion plan against Zone B would succeed? Is Ann's group liable for conspiracy to invade B?Black: I would consider that academic and non-threatening if there are no known group hositle to Zone B could benefit from it use the analysis against Zone B.Tanya: But even if there is such a know group, why would you hold Ann's group liable? They are just fantasizing and analyzing. The group that should be held liable is the other hostile group that is looking for good invasion plans and analyses.Black: Let's start with this question: Suppose you just know Zone B's password. Do you agree that Ann should be held liable if she decidies to disclose the password even if she doesn't personally intent to steal anything from Zone B?Tanya: Yes, I think that could qualify as an open solicitation to criminal acts, that would compel Zone B to change its password, which would be a violation of B's autonomy. Ann would have trouble justifying the academic value of disclosing B's password, and the moral justification on why didn't Ann just tell B first if their password is too easy to crack.Zoey: So Ann would be guilty as an unreasonable enabler of violations against Zone B's autonomy.Black: I think the weakest link in the logic is "compel". How do you tell if action is compelling enough that would violate someone's autonomy?LRRH: What is Zone B, after finding that Ann is cracking their passwords, tells Ann and the world that their zone think such action violates their autonomy? Natalie: I would think Zone B should have a right to be left alone.Tanya: A right or a courtesy? We know that it would be courteous to leavel Zone B alone and not try to crack their password. But is Ann violating B's right for cracking it? For publicizing it?Black: I think that if you post information on how to bypass a specific lock to an optional zone without their consent, then maybe you are not violating their autonomy, but poses a threat to their autonomy by making it easier for a violator to succeed.Tanya: And what should be the liability of being a threat to someone's autonomy? In reciprocative justice?Zoey: Then it depends on what a violator can do with the password. If Zone B is already being invaded by monsters that are stuck outside a locked door, and Ann posts the password to the door, Ann's action would be the same as an accomplice of an invasion. If the monsters are going to kill people in Zone B, then Zone B is justified in killing Ann preemptively, because Ann is someone who is willing to get someone killed.Black: We are running into a common situation in reciprocative justice where the damage of a violation depends on the sitaution.Tanya: I think we can leave this topic for now if we can also give an example where Ann's posting of a password would not make her liable to almost anything.LRRH: First, if Zone B has a quest asking for outside help to crack open a box they own, then Ann posting the password would not be a threat or a violation.Tanya: Let's stick to the context that Zone B does not want the password be cracked, what is Ann liable for when she cracks and discloses the password?Black: Let's say it is a lock in Zone B that is not in use. Ann for some reason takes interest in that unused lock, cracks it and posts the result publicly, given that Zone B had already said they don't want anyone cracking it, but did not state what bad effect would happen if it is cracked. I would say if there is no reasonably foreseeable ill effect, then B cannot reciprocatively claim that their autonomy is being violated. They can only claim that Ann is not execizing courtesy to their request. But Ann was not a threat to their autonomy. In traditional terminology, Ann could be considered a threat to Zone B's Authority, but Ann is not threatening or violating B's Autonomy.Black: I don't think Common should fault someone for ignoring a call for courtesy. It doesn't amount to a violation that would void Ann's right to not enter common or not having an optional zone of her own.Tanya: Couldn't you argue that that is a misuse of Common? Ann put something in Common specific about B that B wouldn't want to be put in Common. Black: If you want to show courtesy, it would just be worth a spoiler alert. The information bethind a spoiler alert is not "common", it is optional.Tanya: What if Ann did it "in common"? Such as posting it on a billboard on a highway? Is there injury more than just being uncourteous?LRRH: I think it is not a threat, but it is harassment. Ann is trying doing something in common knowing that B wouldn't want it, and Ann has no legitimate reason of doing so other than to make B unhappy.

[126] Attempt
๐ฏNatalie: What are the elements of an attempt to commit a crime?
Tanya: I think it would be the same as the crime except it failed. In other words, they require guilty acts.Natalie: Correct! The act should be beyond mere preparation, and meet Proximity test, equivocality test, and substantial step test.
[128] Overt Act
๐๏ธNatalie: Does overt act mean the same in attempts and conspiracies?
Sasha: Doesn't overt act for conspiracy include making agreements? But for other attempts that would not be enough.Natalie: Correct! Overt act for conspiracy includes acts that further the conspiracy, which includes preparations insufficient for an attempt.
[129] Abandonment
๐๏ธNatalie: When is abandonment a valid defense to attempt?
Zoey: You mean like you shot someone then try to save their life? I think you would still be guilty. Natalie: Zoey is right! And in some courts, if you are caught waiting to shoot someone but aborts the plan, then you would not be guilty of attempted murder even if those courts would normally recognize waiting to shoot to be a sufficient act for the attempt.

This is Magic Bakery plays CSI: Case 2!
Sasha: The game is rated for teens and up. We don't follow the official rules.
๐จ Case 2: Last Dance: Day 2
Cardinal: This is day 2 of investigation. Black was to review the security camera footage of the nightclub but found himself dozed off at the console.
Cardinal: โโโโโโCardinal: The security camera had recorded over itself.Zoey: I need a recap. XDTanya: The victim was shot on a dance floor carrying a letter that reveals a scammer who was scamming the casino. We found evidence that the victim's best friend called the scammer earlier, and might be part of the scamming. Both the best friend and the scammer have motives for the murder, and most likely the best friend stepped on the victim when she did not die from the gunshot.Ledia: We have evidence to tie the best friend to the murder, but not the scammer. We found the gun in the dumpster.Zoey:I found the gun in the dumpster. XDSasha: I think we lost the security footage clue.Sasha: By the way, the official game has a setback game mechanism. A player draws from a deck and could get a setback card.Cardinal: In our case it can happen when your dice roll is low enough.Tanya: We have everything for the arrest of the best friend. But we still need to tie the means and opportunity to the scammer.Zoey: Let's start with the clues from the gun.Cardinal: Who is doing forensics on the gun?Zoey: I think it is safe(r) if we pair up?Ledia: I think it is too cumbersome if we always pair up. If we are doing it solo and get a bad roll, could we just realied that it is too hard and get a KO, then someone else can try?Ledia: I can't imagine we would keep trying until no one else can help.Black: I agree with Ledia.Sasha: But then you or we would never fail and lose a clue.Ledia: Wouldn't it be better if we lose a clue if we do something reckless instead of simply having a bad dice roll?Cardinal: Let's try Ledia's suggestion where if you fail, you are KO'ed for the rest of the session. If there are two KO's on the same clue, the clue is lost.Sasha: Remember, everyone: It is a game. Tanya: Okay let's try it.Zoey: Okay. This means that it is okay for me to just try solo? And it won't put the team in any disadvantage?Tanya: The team is still at a disadvantage if you don't have the best person doing a skill check. You are taking up a slot with a lower chance to succeed.Zoey: I don't think any of us has any forensic skill rating, so we are all the same.Cardinal: Zoey believes that she is just as good as anyone else when it comes to forensics.Zoey: Okay I will roll for it.Cardinal: What do you want to check about the gun?Zoey: Fingerprints and to confirm whether the gun fired the bullet found in the victim.Cardinal: Please roll 1+.Zoey: โโ
๐ [5] Fingerprints on Gun
Cardinal: Zoey has lifted one set of fingerprints from the gun handle, but could not find a match from the database.
Zoey is recognized for Fingerprints Matching Rank C.Tanya: Does the database have the three suspects' fingerprints?Cardinal: The database has the victim and the scammer's fingerprints, but not the best friend or the nightclub owner.Zoey: Uh-oh.Tanya: I think we should arrest the best friend first and get her fingerprints. And get fingerprints of the nightclub owner also. Somehow.Sasha: Hold on. What about the ballistics and the serial number? If the ballistics don't match do we care about the gun?Cardinal: Zoey has her hands full with fingerprints when Sasha asks for the ballistics report.Zoey: Do it yourself. XDCardinal: In the meantime, Tanya formally charges the best friend of murder and obtained her fingerprints. They were not a match to the gun's.Sasha: I roll for ballistics.Black: May I get the owner's fingerprints?Cardinal: How would you approach the owner for his fingerprints?Black: I would just ask for his fingerprints to assist investigation.Cardinal: โโCardinal: Black has obtained the Nightclub owner's fingerprints, and they match the prints on the gun.Zoey: What? XDLedia: There were only three suspects, so.Zoey: But he has no motive.Tanya: He could be framed. Zoey: You still need a motive to be framed. XDSasha: Ballistics first...Zoey: We are not supposed to need ballistis because I found the gun from elemental trace of the casing. XD We already know that gun was fired and the casing is from that gun. XDSasha: Is that true, Cardinal?Cardinal: Sasha please roll 1+.Sasha: โโCardinal: Sasha doesn't trust Zoey's method and wants another forensic evidence linking the bullet in the victim to the gun. But she has no relevant skill to do such check.Sasha is watching impatiently to see who can give her the ballistics report. Sasha is considered KO'ed.Zoey: Does this mean we are down to last chance for the ballistics report? XDSasha: Who is supposed to be able to do this? Ivy? StarTree?Tanya: If I do it do I get at least a roll of 2+?Cardinal: Estimated proficiency from high to low is Ivy, StarTree, Sylvia, Tanya, Casey.Sasha: I think my roll shouldn't lose a slot because I obviously didn't even touch the gun or the bullet.Ledia: True.Tanya: If we still have two slots I would like to get placed.Cardinal: Tanya please roll 2+.Tanya: โโโCardinal: Tanya is studying. It would take her sometime to learn the craft. Probably not in any practical timeframe to help this case.Tanya: @StarTree please help.StarTree: Wee~~!Cardinal: StarTree please roll 3+.StarTree: โโโโCardinal: StarTree could tell that the gun uses the same kind of bullet as the one in the victim, but not whether that gun had fired that bullet. The team might have to rely on their last resort that they would rather not bother.Casey: Can I try then? If you have already fired the bullet and took picture, you can't really fail can you? Now it is just a matter of who is rolling high enough to get a match.Zoey: "High enough" as in at least one plus. XDLedia: I know right, this is too hard for getting a report on the bullet.Cardinal: The quicker way would be to lose the clue.Black: But that should be quite impossible. As Casey said, if you fired it and took photos, how do you fail?Ivy: Ballistics Forensics is not as definite as people think it is.Ivy: I roll along with Casey.Cardinal: Ivy please roll 3+, Casey 1+.Ivy: โโโโCasey: โโ
๐ [6] Ballistics
Cardinal: Ivy finds that the gun found in the dumpster is capable of making the marks on the bullet that hit the victim. The casing has a microstamp matching the firing pin of that gun.
Cardinal: The gun's serial number was filed off.Ivy is recognized for Forensics Rank A.Casey is recognized for Ballistics Rank CTanya: Still no evidence placing the scammer on scene.Ledia: Maybe the second murderer is not the scammer, but the nightclub owner. We just don't know of a motive.Zoey: What about the whiskey bottle? Let's see who drank from it.Zoey: May I do fingerprints again?P4: P4 wants to use oracle skill on the bottle.Tanya: StarTree please check for DNA.Cardinal: Zoey please roll 1+, P4 2+, and StarTree 3+.Zoey: โโP4: โโโโโStarTree: โโโโ
๐ฎ [7] Whiskey Bottle
Cardinal: The team finds no trace evidence from the small bottle or its content.
Ledia: If we question the best friend, would she confess about the scammer?Tanya: I would assume that she won't talk.Ledia: Then what about the nightclub owner? He seems cooperative so far.Cardinal: What would you ask him?Ledia: Actually let's do some background research to see if the club owner has any registered guns.Cardinal: Ledia finds that the club owner has the same model of gun registered as the one in evidence.Ledia: Serial number of the gun is filed off, but we know the serial number from the firing pin. Does that match?Cardinal: โโCardinal: Ledia marched the serial number from the firing pin to the club owner.Ledia: I ask him if all of his weapons are accounted for.Cardinal: He says that he lent a gun to the victim, but she could not find it to return it.Ledia: Did he or why didn't he report that as lost?Cardinal: He says he asked only recently, after the victim has resigned to take the casino job. He asks you if you have found the gun.Ledia: I show him the gun and say this gun was used to shoot the victim.Cardinal: He looks at the gun and says it looks like his gun, but he didn't file off the serial number. He says that he originally lent the victim the gun six months ago when someone else in her apartment building was assaulted.Sasha: I think this points back to the best friend. The best friend took the gun and either gave it to the scammer or used it to shoot the victim herself.Ledia: But who else could verify that he in fact lent a gun to the victim? If he did, why didn't the gun have the victim's fingerprints?Ledia: We are saying that the gun has his fingerprints from six months ago, but not the victim's fingerprint when she has the gun.Tanya: If the gun was in a case, she might have never touched the gun itself.Ledia: Is there a gun case at the victim's apartment?Cardinal: Who is looking at her apartment?LRRH: I guess I will look with Sirius.Cardinal: Please roll 2+.LRRH: โโโCardinal: Red finds the gun case hidden in the victim's room. The gun inside is missing.Tanya: So far there is no contradiction in the owner's story.Zoey: Does the case have fingerprints? XDLRRH: I guess I will also lift fingerprints.Cardinal: Red please roll 2+.LRRH: โโโCardinal: Red lifted fingerprints and they matched the owner's and the victim's. Red is recognized for Fingerprints Matching Rank B.P4: May I try seeing who took the gun?Cardinal: P4 pleae roll 1+.P4: โโโโโโCardinal: P4 failed at seeing. P4 is out of mana. She is considered KO'ed.Tanya: I want to see if the scammer shot the victim.Cardinal: New terminology: if I say please roll 2-, it means roll two dice, if any one of them is a minus, keep rolling until you get a plus. Else, keep rolling until you get a minus. Cardinal: Tanya please roll 2-.Zoey: That is basically a roll with a disadvantage.Tanya: โโโ
๐ฎ [8] Gunshot
๐ฉCardinal: Tanya sees that the shot was fired by a man at point blank as he bumped onto the victim on the dance floor in the smoke effect. The right hand holding the gun had a glove on. The small gun was then shoved into a pants pocket. It was dark until she sees dim streetlight as the gun was tossed into the dumpster while the man holds up the lid. Tanya's vision ends as the lid slammed shut. Tanya could not see the face of the man.
Tanya stayed on the vision as long as she could. She is out of mana and considered KO'ed.Tanya is now recognized for Oracle Skill Retrospection Rank B.Tanya: But I did tell others what I see as I see them, correct?Cardinal: Yes. You cannot cast spells but you can still talk.Zoey: What is the hat for? You marked the message with a hat.Ledia: I think we can still get evidence if we get the clothing of the shooter for gunshot residue.Black: Would there happen to be a camera looking at the alley, or at the exits of the alley with the dumpster?Sasha: Sounds like we need to revisit the dumpster and get the scammer's clothing. Or maybe also the owner's.Cardinal: Detectives, please confirm what you would do next.LRRH: I go to the scammer's address to look for him.Ledia: Or what time is it? Should he be at work?Cardinal: You don't know the scammer's work schedule.Zoey: I revisit the dumspter to look for camera, shoeprints, trace evidence.Black: I also go to the dumpster to look.Cardinal: Zoey, Black, please roll 2+. Red, please decide where you are going and roll 2+.Zoey: โโโBlack: โโโLRRH: I call the casino to confirm if he is at work, if so I go to the casino. If not, I go to his home.LRRH: โโโโ
๐ [9] Dumpster Alley
Cardinal: Zoey and Black revisited the alley where the dumpster was, and still is. The area is still taped off since last night. There is no sign that there is any camera looking into the alley, or at the alley's exits. There is no obvious sign of any footprint.
Zoey: From Tanya's vision, there should be a clue here.Black: We don't necessarily need the suspect's footprint here, his shoes could have picked up something from here.Zoey: It would have to be something rather unique to place his shoes here last night.Zoey: I cast Faerie Fire.Cardinal: The Faerie Fire is lighting up organic signatures like an ALS light in a dark room, except it is doing it in board daylight. Faerie light reminds the detectives what drunk patrons to the nightclub do in the alley, showing rainbows of all kinds of organic matters, old and new on the ground, at the lower portions of the walls, and handprints on the wall, door knobs, and dumpster lid.
Zoey: Rainbow vomits. XDBlack: I think the clue is fingerprints on the lid. Zoey: But he wore gloves.Black: Maybe after dumping the gun he took the gloves off and dumped them too.Zoey: We get fingerprints and look for the gloves.Cardinal: Zoey and Black started taking fingerprints form the lid and then checked the inside for gloves. They found no gloves, but there was a match with the fingerprints, to the scammer's left hand.Black: The dude only wore a glove on the right hand.Zoey: Why? XDBlack: Maybe it looks more normal with an ungloved hand and people assume that high right hand in the pocket is also ungloved.Zoey: Keeping a hand in the pocket is still suspicious. XDSasha: Is this good enough evidence? or is it just circumstancial?Ledia: We didn't connect the gun to him. We still need GSR.
๐ [10] Scammer's Home
Cardinal: The casino says that the scammer has today off, so Red went to his residence. At the entrance to the condo complex, Sirius makes a detour to a flowerbed where there were the keys to the scammer's condo unit.
LRRH: I pick up the keys.LRRH: If the keys are here, does it mean he is not home?Ledia: Only one way to find out.LRRH: Do we now have a search warrant?Ledia: I cover the back. Go ahead and ring the doorbell.LRRH: Okay.Cardinal: As Red approaches the condo unit, she see the alleged scammer and a locksmith working on the door lock.
LRRH: I ask him if he dropped the keys.Cardinal: How exactly do you ask that?LRRH: Hello, Mister. Did you drop these keys?Cardinal: He reaches for it with his gloved right hand.LRRH: I'm not supposed to give them back am I?Cardinal: At that thought, Sirius suddenly turns around and dashes downstairs with Red still riding on its back. The scammer gave chase. Ledia sees Sirius dashing out the back side.Ledia: I tackle the scammer down.Cardinal: Ledia please row 2+.Ledia: โโโโโโCardinal: Ledia, how would you like to do this?
โ๏ธ [11] Arrest
Ledia: As the scammer follows Red out the back of the condo, I cast shock on his legs. He falls and I make the arrest for murder.
Ledia: What we call murder here is what the normal law would call an attempted murder.Cardinal: Further investigation reveals that after shooting the victim, the scammer returned home half drunk and could not find the keys to open his own door. He fell asleep there and called the locksmith the next day. Gunshot residue was found on his glove and pocket, as well as on the door keys that Sirius found by scent.LRRH: Good dog.Ledia is recognized for Lightning Skill Shock Rank SS.Sasha: Cardinal, you skipped the part where we make guesses.Cardinal: I am sorry. I forgot about that and did not work it into the flow.Zoey: It went full D&D. XDSasha: Okay. Every player from part 1 and 2 get a win but no one gets a challange win.Zoey: This shooter doesn't seem awfully compentent.Ledia: Being an alcholic could do things to your brain.Evelyn: May I raise the victim?Cardinal: Please roll 3+.Evelyn: โโโโCardinal: โโ
๐ Revival
Cardinal: The victim was raised, but retained no memory of the night when she was murdered, nor her investigation that discovered the scammer's scheme if not for the letter that she prepared. One day in rehab, she asked Evelyn, "It seems that I was killed while trying to do the right thing. Why did you revive me?"
Evelyn: I'm sorry, I just assumed that people have many more things they still look forward to in life and would want to keep living. ๐Zoey: That was a strange question to ask. Why isn't she grateful? XDEvelyn: I think she is feeling gloomy because she was betrayed by her best friend when all she had been trying was to do a good job and to work with her best friend together. Maybe that was the future she was looking forward to and I didn't realize that emptiness she is feeling when she finds herself killed by the best friend that she wanted to share her life with.Cardinal: Zoey is on scene, seeing Evelyn's tears welling up begging for forgiveness. Zoey: I say to the victim, "Don't worry, you can always find better friends you can do good with."Sasha: Maybe you should consider joining us. You did crack a scamming ring, even if you don't remember how you did it now.Cardinal: With that, the group closed into a group hug, as the newly revived feels the welcoming warmth of a new life.Sasha: Good game, everyone.Ledia: Nice RP.Zoey: A little too dramatic at the autopsy. XDEvelyn: Since it is based on dice roll there is no guarantee that I could do better. ๐Tanya: I think the dice roll adds some interesting considerations.LRRH: I think the game got harder with dice roll and when we have to describe what we actually do.Ledia: I think that part is fine. It gives us the means to alter the context since we don't know the story.Tanya: Cardinal, what clue did we miss this time?Cardinal: 1) The best friend holds a grudge toward the victim because she hoped that the victim would take her position for her to be promoted to manager, but the victim joined as the manager instead, which also made it harder for the scam to operate.Cardinal: 2) Victim's stockings has trace plant fiber from the scammer's flowerbed. They were transfered onto her when the scammer bumped into her for the shooting.Cardinal: 3) The scammer edited surveillance footage to hide illegal pay-offs at the casino.Cardinal: 4) If the detectives listened to the voice recordings on the cellphone, they would find that it was the best friend who asked the victim to go to the nightclub at night. The victim never went to the nightclub at night she only worked during the day for bookkeeping.Tanya: I see.

Collective Bargain is a solution type of solidarity where individuals decide to combine their decisions to get a better from a seller, or from an employer. Depending on the terms of the bargain, this solution may violate autonomy of the seller or the employer.
When does collective bargain violates autonomy
Collective bargain violates autonomy when the seller or employer become cutoff from people who are willing to buy at higher price and those work are willing to work at a lower wage. When that happens, the use of collective bargain drops to Rank 5: Control.
The comment in this {"cmd":"url","url":"https://twitter.com/1WhiteRabbitt/status/1598836165603270658","desc":"tweet"} that "No one has the power to overthrow our collective bargaining rights" can be seen as not entirely correct because "collective bargaining" is not a proper right. The proper right is autonomy. You may use the method of collective bargain up to the limit that would violate someone else's autonomy. The fact that there is a limit to the method, means that the method is not a right by itself. You cannot say, "I am using collective bargain therefore I am innocent." You have to check whether your use of collective bargain would violate someone else's autonomy.

[142] Legal Impossibility
๐ฏNatalie: What is legal impossibility?
Black: A situation where a series of actions does not result in a criminal act. (Even if the actor believes that they have committed a crime.)Natalie: Correct! It happens when what the defendant intends to do is not actually criminal. It is a defense when the defendant is charged for an attempt.
[143] Impossibility
๐๏ธNatalie: Does the model penal code recognize impossibility as a defense to attempt?
Zoey: Is this a trick question? You just said it is a defense to attempt. Legal impossibility is a defense, but not factual impossibility.Natalie: Not in the model penal code. The modern trend is that impossibilities are that such defense is invalid because the defendant was trying to break the law. Tanya: I think that is more correct. The model penal code.
[148] Insanity
๐๏ธNatalie: Is insanity in insanity defense a psychiatric term?
Tanya: If it is to be judged by a jury, no.Natalie: Correct! It is a legal conclusion, that means it is inappropriate for the defendant to be imprisoned.

[149] Insanity
๐ฏNatalie: What are the four principal tests for insanity?
Sasha: Are these tests with specific names? If so, no clue.Natalie: They are M'Naughten Rule, Irresistible Impulse Test, Durhan Rule, and ALI/Model Penal Code "Substantial Capacity Test". They are used together or separately by different jurisdictions.๐๏ธNatalie: M'Naughten Rule: The defedant has a diseased mind causing a defect of reason, such that he acted without knowing that his act was wrong or the nature of his actions.
๐๏ธNatalie: Irresistible Impulse Test: Due to mental illness, defedant is unable to control his action or confirm his conduct to the law.
๐๏ธNatalie: Durham Rule: The crime is a product of a mental disease or defect.
๐๏ธNatalie: ALI/Model Penal Code Substantial Capacity Test: The defendant had a mental defect such that they lack substantial capactiy to appreciate the criminality of their conduct or conform his conduct to the law.
Natalie: For those interested: {"cmd":"url","url":"https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/crime/trial/history.html","desc":"[PBS]"}Tanya: Insanity defense seems pointless in reciprocative justice. Once you have committed a crime, the offender pleads to the victim for a resolution. A judge or a jury can't just decide that the offender is insane and send the offender to a mental institution. The offender is at the mercy of the victim's decision that that is an acceptable resolution.
[151] Majority rule in Insanity
๐๏ธNatalie: What is the majority rule in determining if a criminal defendant is legally insane?
Zoey: I think the most popular one is M'Naughten Rule. But I agree with Tanya that in Common Zone, there is no insanity defense. If you violate someone's autonomy, you are liable. It doesn't matter what mental state you were in.Natalie: Zoey is correct that M'Naughten Rule is the most popular. Tanya: Also, even for jurisdictions that allow insanity defense, the defense should not be about the mental state of the defendant, but whether something can be done about their mental issue. If there is nothing that can be done for their mental issue, the convicted defendant of a violent crime should still be "locked up." Showing that they are insane is moot.Zoey: Agreed. It makes you wonder why the law can get this wrong. XDTanya: Please mark this topic with the swords icon.Natalie: Marked.
[152] Nature of one's Act

Arcacia: The Ham Rule is a biggest piece of ham and the boardest test of insanity where if your criminal thought or action is caused by mental illness, then you are not guilty.Natalie: Correct! Durham Rule is the least used rule because it is seen to be too much in favor of the defendant.

[154] Criminal Insanity
๐ฏNatalie: How does the Model Penal Code define criminal insanity?
Sasha: Either the defedant can't tell what is right or they can't control what they do due to substantial mental defect.Natalie: Correct! It is called the substantial capacity test.

P4: Is it when you are between normal and insane so you are less responsible for what you did?Natalie: Correct! It is only recognized in a minority of states.
[156] Incompetent
๐๏ธNatalie: When will a defendant be found incompetent to stand trial?
Ledia: When they themself does not know what happened.Natalie: Correct! When the defedant doesn't know what happened, they cannot assist their lawyer in preparing a defense. And also when they cannot understand the nature of the proceeding.

Identifying roles is necessary to determine if a policy rewards or punishes the correct parties.
Violator vs Victim
A "violator" is someone who violates someone else's autonomy, and a "victim" is someone whose autonomy is violated. Reciprocative Justice asserts the victim's right to counter the violator's effect imposed on the victim by demanding restoration, and by imposing the same effect back to the violator.
Example: Book
Example
Ann destroys Bob's book. By reciprocative justice, Ann now owes Bob 1) the book and the time or effort that Bob spend dealing with the lost book; and 2) Bob's right to destroy something from Ann where Ann has no right to demand restoration.
Analysis
The first reciprocative effect addresses with the injury, the second reciprocative effect addresses the criminal violation. When Ann destroyed Bob's book, she granted herself a permit to destroy someone else's property without compensation. Since that permit is not justified in reciprocative justice, her destruction to Bob's property was unjustified and the responsibility is on Ann to restore the injury to Bob. In addition to restoring the injured party, her self-declaration of her permit to destroy someone else's property allows others to grant themselves the permit to destroy her properties. If she wants to stop that from happening to her, she has the responsibility to void her the permit that she grants herself.
Authorship
The author of a policy has the special right to define the meaning of the terms used in the policy. This right allows the author to defend the meaning of the policy against misinterpretations. An evaluator may complain about the author's choice of definition, but shall not evaluate the meaning by applying misinterpretation.
Addressing vague terms
When the terms of a policy is not sufficiently defined (from the perspective of the evaluator), the evaluator may choose not to evaluate or ask the author to improve the definitions. In Choice Democracy, there is no deadline for policy evaluation, because each person is an evaluator by their own right to decide and subscript to policies. Evaluated or not, the author of a new policy does not have a right to impose its effects onto you.
Principal vs Agent
A principal is the entity that has the right to decide. An agent is the entity appointed by the principal to exercise the principal's decision. In a people-principal paradigm, the people are considered self-governed because the government (they create) serves them as agents to implement their decisions. (As opposed to a government-principal society where the government imposes policies onto the people and treats the people as the government's agents by assigning their roles in society.) This distinction is necessary to determine whether a policy would establish itself as a violation of the people's autonomy.
Giver and Receiver
In a giver-receiver relation, the giver provides goods or services to the receiver. This relation does not imply that the receiver shall be the party who pays the giver in return (as in a transactional relationship).
Example: Healthcare
People often get sick or injured to no fault of their own. In a quest society, people providing free care to them receive quest credits. The effect is that the giver of service is rewarded and compensated, while the receiver or service is not in debt and does not need to pay or have bought insurance for the services they did not know if they would need.

[157] Intoxication
๐ฏNatalie: What is the significance between involuntary and voluntary intoxication?
Sasha: You are not responsible for a crime if you did it under involuntary intoxication.Natalie: Correct!
[158] Age
๐๏ธNatalie: In the common law, at what age is a child presumed to lack the legal capacity to commit a crime?
P4: Is it 11?Natalie: it is 7 and under. From age 7 to 14, the defendant is presumed to be incapable but could be rebuked. From 14 to 18, the defedant is presumed to be capable but could be rebuked.
[165] M'Naghten
๐๏ธNatalie: Under the M'Naghten Rule, must a criminal defendant fulfill both nature and quality test and right and wrong test?
Evelyn: The defendant only need to meet either one of the tests.Natalie: Correct!

[173] Affirmative Defense
๐ฏNatalie: What is an affirmative defense?
Tanya: Affirm that the alleged events happened, but show that the defendant's actions are justified or lawful.Natalie: Correct! The emphasis is that since the prosecutor typically already has evidence that the defendant is guilty, an affirmative defense means that the defedant bring additional evidence of innocence.
Sasha: We did 173 before.Natalie: I think I misplaced a divider. I am checking the record and skipping the ones we already did.Natalie: Okay. I fixed the wrong icon for some discussion tags, and we have "caught up" to where we started in Law Game 1 before we decided to start from card 1.
[192] Deadly Force
๐๏ธNatalie: When can deadly force be used to protect property?
Fina: In Common, always. No one can fault you for your choice to stop a violation of your autonomy. You need a preferential zone to limit the power of the reaction.Sasha: I think you should at least reasonable announce that you will use deadly force to protect your property. But such announement sounds more like a courtesy than "you have to". Natalie: The card says deadly force is not allowed unless there is also a threat of bodily harm, or the thief is an intruder with intention fo commit a felony.Fina: That law is moot because at the time of the crime, you don't know what the perpetuator can do after they have taken your stuff. Tanya: I think that definition is fine because in reciprocative justice we already define "intrusion" as a felony. Casey: If someone is vandalizing your property, is that intrusion? Can you kill them on the spot?Fina: That is intrusion and the victim may use deadly force.Casey: What kind of property crime is not intrusion?Fina: Such as when you receive a wrong package meant for your neighbor, and you decide to keep itTanya: I think defacing property of an optional (private) zone can be treated the same as intrusion because it compells the occupants to "exit" their zone to fix the damage.Tanya: I think a more common example of property crime that is not intrusion is when a person damages common property. Such example would also include occupying too much common space or for too long.Fina: The key point in reciprocative justice is if someone is in the process of commiting a violation of autonomy, you may use whatever force to stop them. You don't need to use the minimum force at your disposal. The perpetuator has no bargaining power. Tanya: I understand what you mean but I think we will have a hard time explaining or promoting it.Fina: The deescalation preference is a code of conduct for the sake of transparency and accountability, so that you don't run into people killing other by falsely accusing the victims as thieves.Sasha: Wouldn't you say that, then reciprocative justice is not practical because it doesn't have the built-in rules for accountability?Fina: It is not that reciprocative justice is impractical, but that a person trying to do harm through reciprocative justice could be blindsided by the reaction of others also using reciprocative justice. You can't assume that reciprocative justice will work "in your favor". It won't help you if you use it maliciously. Reciprocative justice is not a simple excuse to be unreasonable.Tanya: I think we would just have to explain reciprocative justice along side with minimal force as a courtesy code of conduct. But make it clear that the courtesy is not the law. Violators do not have rights to be treated with minimal force by the victim.
[197] Citizen force
๐๏ธNatalie: Can a person who is not a police officer use force to prevent a felony?
Casey: That should be yes.Natalie: Correct! But the card limits the use of force to reasonable force, and deadly force to dangerous felony. There is some dispute about whether the crime needs to be dangerous.Fina: In reciprocative justice it is not about whether what they do is dangerous, it is about whether they are willing to stop. The victim has no duty to play chess and predict the effect of the violation. The burden is not on the victim to judge whether the violation is "safe." The burden is on the violator to stop and convince the victim not to react.Fina: If you want to put a burden on the victim, then you need a preferential commitment. You need people to sworn int and opt-in to that preferential leniency. Imposing and requiring leniency onto someone else is a violation of their autonomy.Casey: I like how Fina explains it. I side with her.Tanya: A problem is, if we interpret common like that, I think it would be more appropriate to color common yellow and optional zone green, because, at least at first glance, common is more dangerous than optional.Fina: But common has rangers.Sasha: Wouldn't you be constantly worrying that you are stepping into someone's optional zone?Fina: That's only worth an app if your intention is to stay in common. And your argument is opposite to Tanya's. She is saying optional zone is safer.Casey: So must optional zone mark the boundary of their zone?Fina: They don't have to. An optional zone can have the same rules as common. It can even move. But it doesn't mean that you can move your optional zone to include others in a malicious manner to subject them under your law.Fina: For optional zones that are considerably different or dangerous, if the zone owner doesn't mark itself (and does not violate autonomy by being a trap for travellers), the rangers can mark the zones for them. Tanya: It is a very interesting system. It is manga worhy.Zoey: Go rangers. XD

[202] Necessity
๐ฏNatalie: What are the five elements of the rule of necessity?
Sasha: Do you mean things like not doing it would result in greater harm?Tanya: The pressure to act is imminent and there is no better alternatives.P4: That you would have chosen a better way if you know it.Black: Maybe it should stress that something is necessary if it prevents greater harm, but not when it would result in greater good.Zoey: How about whether the defendant being honest and reports what they did? I think if you did something out of necessity you should be not lie about it.Ledia: Compared to an excuse, if you acted out of necessity you did so voluntarily.Natalie: Correct! The only missing element is that the doer is not the person who caused the harm.Natalie: The card gives a Mnemonic but some concepts are very similar: AiLING: Alternatives unavailable; Less serious; Imminent harm; Not cause; Greater harm avoided.
[207] Duress
๐๏ธNatalie: When is duress a valid defense to a crime?
Ivy: When you are forced to do so by another person, not including forces of nature.Natalie: Correct! And the threat needs to be of immediate harm, not future harm. And Duress is not a defense to homicide.
[212] Ignorance
๐๏ธNatalie: When is ignorance or mistake of fact a good defense to a criminal prosecution?
Tanya: When the crime requires Purpose or Knowledge for the mental state.Natalie: Yes, and you need to show that if the facts are as the defedant believed, there would have been no crime.

Planning & Design
Quest Stage
This node is a commentary node about design as a quest stage in Quest Society.
Sub Quests
Quest Society promotes participation and effeciency by breaking down long or complex quests into sub quests. Ideally, each subquest would require minimal planning or design, so that people with the skill can just do them in batches. As a result, "planning and designing" involves defining subquests for concept ideas, prototyping, testing and evaluating, documenting.
Comparison
Unlike the typical situation in a competitive private sector, the planning and design stage in Quest Society is not subjected to the same ambitious schedule in order to beat a competitor because different designers could be working different prototypes but are still sharing their results, or physical designs. The difference in context means that there is less motivation to overcommit or overpromise an aggressive development schedule.

[224] Entrapment
๐ฏNatalie: What is entrapment?
Tanya: Intentionally solicit accomplices to commit a crime in order to prosecute the acomplices.Natalie: The keywords here are that Law Enforecement instigates the defendant to commit the crime when the defendant was not predisposed to do so. In subjective approach, a jury decides whether the defendant was predisposed. In objective approach, the court decides whether a normal person without predisposition would end up committing the crime.
[229] Homicide
๐๏ธNatalie: What are the elements of common law homicide?
Sasha: I think homicide just means your action caused someone's death. So the main element is proximal casuality. Tanya: Isn't that manslaughter? Homicide is more like murder, you need the motive, means opportunity.Natalie: Sasha is correct! Common law homicide includes manslaughter as well as murder. The elements are causing the death of a living human being. Some jurisdiction has a statute of limitations, but some don't.
[230] Degrees
๐๏ธNatalie: Does the common law recognize different degrees of murder?
Black: No.Natalie: Correct!Fina: In reciprocative justice you could also consider there to be degrees. For example, killing someone in common during a heated conflict is less serious than an intruder trespassing into an option zone to assassinate someone there.Tanya: Very similar between first and second degress of murder.Fina: In the first case, you may ban the murderer from common. In the second case, you may ban the murderer from both common and their optional zone.

Hey hey hey! Let's try this puzzle! {"cmd":"url","url":"http://shodor.org/succeed/curriculum/workshops/Forensics/logicPuzzles/liarPuzzle/","desc":"[link]"}
Mikela: The gist of the puzzle is that the four suspects all lied, but the murderer told more than one lie. Who was the murderer?
Tanya: I think the prompt meant the murderer lied everytime they spoke.Zoey: This is very confusing. Maybe we should just list everything that each suspect said.
Arnold's Statements
1: I said it was seven when we arrived.
2: Charles turned on the light.
3: I pulled him out of the oven. I thought he mabye alive and we could still save him.
4: I didn't get the Scotch. I was never here before.
Betsy's Statements
1: I don't know what Arnold said or when we arrived.
2: I remember gas in the hall. We rang the doorbell but there was no answer. Then I smelled the gas. I thought to myself he's dead. I just know he's dead.
3: I opened the window.
4: Arnold got out the scotch. And he passed out the glasses.
Charles's Statements
1: We arrived at seven.
2: There was gas in the hall. I smelled it before we opened the door. Daisy took forever to get the key out.
3: The light was already on.
4: Betsy didn't open the window, Betsy opened the liquor cabinet.
5: I didn't do anything. We just walked here after dinner and see Eggy's feet through the door.
Daisy's Statements
1: We were all together having dinner for at least two hours before arrival.
2: Arnold said it was six o'clock when we arrived.
3: Betsy could't have smelled the gas before opening the door. The place was locked and sealed. Eggy gave me a key last week.
4: I pulled him out of the oven. Arnold ran and opened the window.
Tanya: There are two things that Daisy objected about Arnold: 1) The time they arrived, and 2) Who pulled Eggy out of the oven. Tanya: Therefore the murderer can only be either Arnold or Daisy. Assuming that Daisy was the murderer, the lie that each other suspect told were:Tanya: 1) Arnold: "Charles turned on the light." (The light was already on.). 2) Betsy: "Arnold got out the Scotch." 3) Charles: "Betsy got out the Scotch."Sasha: What happens if you assume Arnold was lying all the way?Tanya: If Arnold is telling all lies, then Charles's statements 2 to 5 need to be considered to be true. But Charles said Betsy didn't open the window but opened the liquor cabinet. Then Betsy would have also told two lies. Therefore Arnold did not tell all lies.Black: Proof by contradiction.Sasha: Okay. Let's bet. The three challenges are: 1) That Daisy was the murderer. 2) That Daisy got out the scotch. 3) That Daisy was not there the whole time during dinner.Tanya: I think at least 1 and 3 are true. โ โ โ Mikela: Hey hey hey! Let's do it! โ โ โ Black: Same.Sasha: Same.Zoey: Why not? XD
๐๏ธ SOLUTION
Mikela: The murderer was Arnold!! Arnold got the scotch and no one left the dinner to commit the murder because the murder happened between 4 to 5 o'clock!
Zoey: TPK. XDTanya: I didn't catch the part that they arrived at seven but Arnold told the wrong time.Zoey: The list of statements didn't include the part where Charles said they were all together for dinner.Sasha: GG.Zoey: Still get a yellow heart.

(Normally odd pages are on the right.)Amelia: I want the page number start with chapter 1, and the pages before chapter 1 be single sided.Amelia: Can we change the frame to look like a card in the story?3B: Done.Amelia: You're too fast.3B: I already started doing it.Black: But is chapter 1 page 1 on the left or on the right?Amelia: Right.Black: Now there are 20 pages.3B: For the cover, after printing it you need to cut the edges.Black: Do you need to know what pages are printed on the same sheet of paper?Amelia: Yes.Black: Have you tried printing any pages? There is a question on how your printer will center the margins.Amelia: Not yet, will try tomorrow.Tanya: If Ashley is 19 years-old, isn't the invitation card a little strange for her? The card is addressed to the parents, so it is assumed that the school is for minors.3B: I did some slight updates on Ashley's book and wand. Black: Our printer has a book binding print option. But I think that options only prints four pages on each sheet of paper. If you want to print 8 pages per sheet, you would need to specify which pages to print manually. If your printer does not center the margins properly, the result with have the pages offset differently every other page. It will not look good. 3B: Fixed alignment of the title on the cover.Vivi: Ashley's short sleve on the left is too thick.3B: Fixed.3B thanks all for the inputs.

[231] Justified homicide
๐ฏNatalie: When is homicide justified?
Fina: Self-defense, or with consent.Natalie: The card covers those situations by saying "Where the killing is necessary, the killer is without fault, and the killing occurs in the performance of a legal duty or the exercise of a legal right."Fina: In what I said, in the performance of a legal duty is not a justification. The nature of the legal duty can be wrong.Tanya: I think the killer doesn't need to be without fault. For example the person who is killed could be with more fault.Zoey: Like when a villain's assitant had a change of heart and kills the villain at the end.Tanya: Yes.Natalie: That was actually three separate circumstances. Punctuations added: 1) Where the killing is necessary; 2) The killer is without fault; 3) and the killing occurs in the performance of a legal duty or the exercise of a legal right.Tanya: I see.
[232] Murder
๐๏ธNatalie: What is murder in common law?
Tanya: Premeditated or reckless killing of someone innocent.Natalie: Correct! It is unjustifiable and non excusable killing with: 1) Intent to kill or do serious bodily injury; 2) killing during recklessness; 3) felony murder: deaths that occur during the commission of a felony.
[234] Intentionality
๐๏ธNatalie: Does common law murder require that the killing be intentional?
Zoey: No. XD You just said felony murder.Natalie: Correct!

[235] Express malice
๐ฏNatalie: What is express malice?
Sasha: It means doing something with the intention to cause harm.Natalie: It means actual and specific intent to kill someone. If you just want to cause great bodily (which could also lead to death), then you have implied malice.
[236] Implied malice
Natalie: When will malice sufficient for murder be implied?
Tanya: When the purpose of the crime is not to kill, but the circumstance demonstrates that the perpetuator wouldn't mind if someone is killed in the process.Natalie: I think your answer is equivalent. The card's answer is that the defendant's state of mind satisfies one of these: 1) Demonstrated intent to cause great bodily harm; 2) The act would naturally lead to cause great bodily harm or death; 3) A homicide occurs during the commission of a dangerous felony.Tanya: They could be equivalent.
[237] Depraved heart
๐๏ธNatalie: What is depraved heart murder?
Evelyn: Is it murder caused by recklessness or mental illness?Natalie: It is correct for recklessness in model penal code. In common law it only requires extreme neligent based on an objective standard, regardless whether the defendant himself is aware of the risk.

This is a policy and reaction consideration where in times of urgency restrictions on some behavior should be relaxed for them to be forgiven.
Rationale
In general, a society needs to let people discuss crimes and punishment, especially when a crime is suspected to be happening. By making it easier to address grievance at times of conflict, the society can learn and address the root causes of the conflict faster.
Example: Firefighting
Grabbing, punching and kicking someone would normally constitute assault. But when a hysterical mother does so to demand firefighters to save her children trapped in the fire, the mother's action is usually forgiven.
Example: Death Threat
A death threat is normally a violation of someone's autonomy. But in a time of an invasion, a supporter of the victim country making a death threat to a supporter of the invader country could be forgiven or justified.

[238] First Degree Murder
๐ฏNatalie: What is first-degree murder in most states?
Tanya: Premediated killing of a specific person.Natalie: Yes, but also include part of felony murder if the felony is rape, robbery, burglary, or arson, and muder by poison, torture, or lying in wait.Natalie: Premediation doesn't require a long time. It just means that the murderer decides to kill.
[239] Evidence
๐๏ธNatalie: What types of evidence will tend to show that a defendant premediuated and deliberated in killing his victim in first-degree murder?
Black: Motive? Preparation of the means and opportunity for the murder when such preparation is not reasonably for other purpose.Natalie: Correct! And also the nature of the homicide, such as where on the victim's body the attack took place.
[240] Degrees
๐๏ธNatalie: Does the Model Penal Code separate murder into degrees?
Sasha: Yes. It is common law that doesn't.Natalie: No it does not. The Model Penal Code has two classification: Purposeful or knowing killing; and reckless or extreme negligence to human life.Sasha: Then what do you call the law that have first and second degree murder?Natalie: There is no name. It is just what states do. {"cmd":"url","url":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_in_United_States_law","desc":"[Wiki]"}Sasha: One more question please.
[241] Deadly Weapon
๐๏ธNatalie: What is the deadly weapon doctrine?
P4: That the weapon is designed to kill or in generally used as a deadly weapon.Sasha: Hey!Natalie: P4's answer is not what the question is asking. The question is asking, "what is the significance that the defendant used a deadly weapon?"Sasha: You can presume that they meant to kill unless the evidence shows otherwise.Natalie: Correct!

[255] Felony Murder
๐ฏNatalie: What is the felony murder rule?
Sasha: During a violent or dangerous felony crime, the perpetuator can be guilty of murder if someone dies in the commission.Natalie: Correct! Specifically, felony murder is first-degree murder for dangerous felony, and second-degree murder for non-dangerous felony.
[256] Felony Murder 2
๐๏ธNatalie: Does felony murder rule apply to a homicide during any felony?
Tanya: Not if there are multiple felonies happening at the same time and the death is caused by someone else's felony.Zoey: Not if the person who dies is one of the perpetuators. XDSasha: Not if the homicide is with consent.Natalie: Correct!
[271] Voluntary Manslaughter
๐๏ธNatalie: What is the difference between common law voluntary manslaughter and murder?
P4: Murder means you want to kill someone specific.Natalie: Correct! Voluntary murder means murder commited under adequate provocation such as heat of passion.

This is a question on how to make the website more searchable.
๐ Topic 1: Github Search Index
Black: First topic: Github. Google Search Console only index one page from the github sitemap.
Black: This is probably because there is only one link in the sitemap. That link points to the viewer, which is blank by itself.Black: I don't think Google Search Console can index anything useful there.Black: So I added the Arcacianism URL to the sitemap, but I still doubt that Google Search Console can index anything useful because that URL is a command to load data from Archive1. I think Google Search will see just the blank viewer page again, without the loaded content.Black: We need something else to make GitHub searchable by Google.Sasha: How about adding "Arcacianism" to the index page?Tanya: @StarTree.StarTree: It is now added as hidden text for testing!Tanya: Please also add "Peace Paradigm Ranking"StarTree: Done!StarTree: Google Search Console now says it discovered 2 pages!Black: In that case please also add the philosophy node url and the peace ranking node url to the sitemap.StarTree: Done! 4 pages discovered!Sasha: I think now we wait.
Topic 2: Notion and Super
๐Black: So I tried using Notion. It is interesting. I don't know how it will fit our workflow but let's try checking if the free version of Notion+Super is google searchable.
Black: According to {"cmd":"url","url":"https://www.simple.ink/guides/google-search-console-notion-websites","desc":"[link]"}.StarTree: Super does not allow custom code unless upgraded!StarTree: Simple Ink allows custom code!Black: What about the sitemap for Simple Ink?Black: The simple ink website is not functional.StarTree: StarTree has no idea!Tanya: I think GitHub still has the highest chance of succeeding. We haven't added a static "sitemap" on index yet.Tanya: If GitHub Index.html has a static list of links, perhaps Google Search Console can index something.Black: Notion Free Plan has a limit of 1000 blocks, to upgrade there is a monthly charge per member.LRRH: We should keep the website free.Tanya: With a limit of 1000 blocks, is it even useful for prototype?Black: The templates are interesting and could give us some ideas on what to do with the GitHub website.Tanya: On Notion, there is quest board with quests to import content from NextDoor. Is that a real quest or just a dummy?Black: I don't know yet. If we are just discussing the main principles, 1000 blocks might be enough.Tanya: But we could do the same at GitHub, and it would be virtually unlimited.Black: GitHub is not really user friendly yet. It still need a lot of upgrade for a node to display nicely on index.Vivi: The URL node display is fine if you are on mobile. But there is no "Homepage". It is missing the about.Vivi: The card is not centered when the frame is narrow.StarTree: The card would center properly on mobile but not on desktop.StarTree: Experimenting new format for the card. {"cmd":"url","url":"https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/CSS_flexible_box_layout/Controlling_ratios_of_flex_items_along_the_main_axis","desc":"[link]"}StarTree: Experimenting... {"cmd":"url","url":"https://tobiasahlin.com/blog/flexbox-break-to-new-row/","desc":"[link]"}.

[274] Imperfect Self-defense
๐ฏNatalie: What is the imperfect self-defense doctrine resulting in manslaughter?
Black: Is it when you defend with deadly force in a situation you shouldn't have?Natalie: Correct! And that includes the case when the defendant was the aggressor so they could not claim self-defense. In such cases, imperfect self-defense doctrine lowers the conviction from murder to manslaughter.
[275] Adequate Provocation
๐๏ธNatalie: What are the four elements of adequate provocation that would reduce murder to voluntary manslaughter?
Tanya: Imminent, intention to use deadly force, intention to cause great bodily harm, being cornered.Natalie: The elements are about "heat of passion", which are the subjective and objective judgment that the defendant was provoked and had not yet cooled off for the killing, and a reasonable person would also be provoked and would not have cooled off for the killing.
[276] Provocation
๐๏ธNatalie: What kinds of provocation will the law include and exclude from provocation doctrine?
Tanya: Include: imminent threat of bodily harm, corning someone, attempt to restraint someone.Sasha: Those sounds like grounds for self-defense, not really "heat of passion."Sasha: Exclude: Jokes, people who are just delivering a message.Tanya: Exclude: When the provoker is already in custody.Natalie: Well... BAMcA buWA: Battery, Assault, Mutual Combat and Adultery, but Words Alone are never enough.Tanya: I think there is a contrast here. If you are being battered, responding with deadly force could be jusified in some cases, if not in most cases.Sasha: Shouldn't it depend on how hard they hit you?Tanya: It shouldn't. You can't force people to have their autonomy violated. As long as it is evident that the violator is acting with malice, you can use maximum force to stop it.Sasha: Pranks be damned.Tanya: Pranks be damned. If you want to be where pranks are less harshly treated, you need to go to an optional zone where people waive their full rights.

[280] Involuntary Manslaughter
๐ฏNatalie: In common law, when is a homicide involuntary manslaughter?
Arcacia: When someone is killed by mistake.Natalie: There are two situations: when a crime that is not serious enough for felony murder causes a death, or criminal neglience.
[281] Criminal Negligence
๐๏ธNatalie: What are the elements of criminal negligence involuntary manslaughter?
Evelyn: The defendant should know that thei action could cause someone's life or do serious bodily harm; they have the responsibility to prepare or protect the victim; but they failed to do so.Natalie: The model penal code requires awareness of the risk, but in general the harm only needs to be foreseeable, and the defendant does not need to be in any special role where they have the duty to prevent or protect someone, as long as they cause the death.
[288] Mayhem
๐๏ธNatalie: What is mayhem?
Tanya: If malice is the intent to kill, then mayhem is the intent to cause bodily harm.Natalie: Mayhem is malicious dismemberment, disabling a body part, or maiming a person to result in permanent injury or disfigurement.

Abortion is not a right, but in some situations it is socially forgiven. The applicable principle is that of dependency.
Tanya: A dependent person does not have a right to be taken care of, and their existing host does not have a right to kill them, but has a right to separate them. Tanya: Once separated, the host does not have a right to decide the fate of the dependent. The dependent is presumed to want to be alive. That grants other persons a presumed consent to claim the dependent.
General Relation
The relationship between a pregnant person and the unborn is generalized to that between a Provider (A) that contains a Receiver (B) within its body. The ability of the receiver to sustain its own life is one parameter of the generalization.
Terminology
If B cannot sustain its life without taking resources from A, then B is considered a Dependent of A. If B is in a state where it cannot exit A by itself, B is considered without autonomy.
Black: If B is in a state where it cannot decide to exit A, B is considered incapable of free will.Black: If A is not allowed to stop nurturing B, then Aโs autonomy is violated. In this conclusion, it does not matter whether B is capable of autonomy and free will. This means:Black: Even if B is capable of autonomy and free will, B does not have a right to take resources from A without Aโs ongoing agreement. If B has free will, B only has a right to exit the custody of A if A does not want to take care of it.Black: Forcing people to forgive or punish each other should both be illegal for violating autonomy.
What does B want to do?
If B has free will and prefers to exit A and technology is available to do so within acceptable cost to A, then those who prevent B from exiting are violating Bโs free will. If B has free will and prefers to stay in A even if it would die, then those who force B to exit are violating Bโs free will. In both cases, those who assume Bโs intention are at risk of violating Bโs free will. Without assuming Bโs preference, the only entity with standing to decide is A, the provider.
Accommodation
If the free will of B is known and it prefers to exit A, what is the acceptable cost to A?
Black: In the principle of reciprocation, the acceptable cost is not a subject to be decided by others, but the cost the A declares to accept is the cost that others are morally compelled to bear. This means that:Black: If A declares that there is no cost it would bear to fulfill Bโs free will (wish) to exit A (to have a chance to stay alive), then it is within reciprocated moral to bear no cost to save Aโs life when Aโs life is in danger. ((If you are not willing to break a sweat to save someone elseโs life, then others donโt need to break a sweat to save yours.))Black: In reciprocation, Aโs decision to not save B makes it legal for others to not save A. It does not make it illegal for others to save A anyway.Black: Retroactive reciprocation is a variant that makes it legal to reflect Aโs decision to treat others to how A was treated in the past. If A had received life-saving help in the past but was never in a situation where Aโs decision could save another life, then Aโs decision on how far it would go to save lives would retroactively limit the amount of help it should receive in the past. This translates to Aโs decision to not save B could make it legal for society to place debt on A for having received help to save Aโs life. At the same time, it is not illegal to forgive Aโs debt even if A only chooses to be saved but chooses not to save anyone else.
Is it legal to attack A if A doesn't provide for B?
This situation is generally analogous to that where B is in a coma and A wants to pull the plug. The willingness of A to bear the cost of letting B switch providers is reflected in reciprocation. If C forces A to provide for B, then it is reciprocatively legal for A to force C to provide for B. If C does not have the means to provide for B, then C does not have a standing for the negotiation.
Black: In the case of B being in a coma, C has no right to stop A from providing for B unless C could provide for B instead. Otherwise, C forcing A to provide for B is an illegal attack on A. On the other hand, A has no right to stop providing for B if A could reasonably know that C is willing to provide for B instead.Black: In the case where B is an unborn in a womb, in the current technology, A could claim that there is no reasonable alternative for anyone to provide for B. Therefore, no one has a right to stop A when A decides to stop providing for B. However, if the technology exists for B to be transferred to another provider C, then Aโs decision to stop providing for B becomes an avoidable attack on B, and C may counterattack A to save B. When C saves B, C assumes all providing costs for B. A does not need to pay for the cost of C providing for B. If C cannot afford to provide for B, then C should not have attacked or have threatened to attack A when A chooses not to provide for B.
Killing B
What if A is not just trying to pull the plug, but to kill B?
In the same context where there is no reasonable alternative provider (C), the manner A decides to stop providing for B can be reciprocated. If A decides to not supply for B and chooses a humane way (use quick poison instead of starvation), then it is morally illegal for others to end Aโs life in inhumane ways in a similar situation when a humane way is available.
Unannounced
Can A pull the plug unannounced?
Even in the same context where there is no reasonable alternative provider (C), A is at risk of being guilty of deception when they act negatively toward another being unannounced. Privacy law does not cover situations when a person conceals information about bringing another person into harm. When it is widely accepted that no one else could save B except A, then it could be common to forgive A for not announcing, but A would not have a default right to conceal.
Origin of B
Does the origin of B matter?
The origin of B determines whether A could claim reimbursement for providing for B and the cost of ending the care. For example, if A wakes up and finds B in a coma and is connected to its house, then A has a right to find out who did it and claim reimbursement. However, as long as C doesnโt exist, the situation remains the same: A may pull the plug on B even if A could personally afford to provide for B. Aโs choice is handled by reciprocation. ((If A lets B die while A can afford to keep B alive, then others may also let A die when they can afford to keep A alive.))
Conclusion
Does the origin of B matter?
By generalizing the relationship in abortion, you may see that the debate on when an unborn is a life with free will is irrelevant. Even if the dependent being is a fully grown human being, the provider may choose to end its life as long as the dependent being does not exercise its free will to exit the dependency and get another provider. Anyone who is not volunteering as an alternate provider for the dependent has no right to stop the current provider from ending the dependentโs life.
Black: However, the decision by the provider to stop support is not without consequences. The provider is subjected to reciprocation, making it legal for others to treat them in the same way in a similar situation, although it is also legal for each person to choose to forgive them and treat them better than how they have treated others.

[304] Rape
๐ฏNatalie: What is rape?
Tanya: Sexual conduct with a victim who did not or cannot give consent.Natalie: The card's answer is slightly different. "Unlawful intercousrse with one other than one's spouse wtihout the victim's consent."Sasha: The card means a wife can't not give consent.Tanya: The card's concept is outdated.Ledia: Shouldn't "conduct" be "contact"?Tanya: I would agree.
[309] Larceny
๐๏ธNatalie: What are the elements of common law larceny?
Sasha: Taking someone else's stuff without their consent.Natalie: It needs to have the intention to keep it. Trespassory taking and carrying away of personal property of another with intent to steal it.
[310] Property
๐๏ธNatalie: Does larceny appliy to any property?
Zoey: From the last one larceny is only for personal property. So, not public property or even property of a company.Natalie: Correct! In common law, larceny does not include real property, fixtures, intangible things such as service.

[311] Abandoned property
๐ฏNatalie: Is abandoned property subject to larceny?
Tanya: I think it is not. In reciprocative justice, there is probably no need to have different types of theft.Natalie: Correct, taking abandoned property does not deprive anyone of it.
[312] Misdelivery
๐๏ธNatalie: When would one be liable for larceny if they are misdelivered property?
Zoey: If the property is personal property and you want to keep it without letting the rightful owner know.Natalie: Correct! The offender needs to decide to steal the moment they realize that the property is not theirs.
[314] Custody
๐๏ธNatalie: For larceny, what is the difference between possession and custody?
Sasha: Isn't custody temporary? If you have custody of something it doesn't mean that it is yours.Tanya: If you take something just to have custody before returning to its rightful owner, then you are not guilty of larceny.Natalie: If the taker only has custody of the property, stealing it is considered larceny. If you have possession of the property, stealing it is embezzlement.

[339] Embezzlement
๐ฏNatalie: What is the difference between embezzlement and larceny?
LRRH: Embezzlement is when you are misusing property meant for some other purpose. Larceny is when you take someone else's stuff for yourself.Tanya: No practical difference in reciprocative justice so long as you are violating what something is meant to be used for.Natalie: In embezzlement, the person still already has possession. It requires conversion, but not movement. Some modern statutes combine larceny, embezzlement, and false pretenses into one general crime of theft.Tanya: I wouldn't say reciprocative justice is "modern".Zoey: It sounds like someone in history tried to differentiate them for different punishments.
Natalie: Since Red is here. I don't plan to indefinitely continue the streak. We are heading toward the holidays I think it is understandable that we would skip some days.LRRH: I understand. But what does that have to do with me.
[340] Larceny by Trick
๐๏ธNatalie: What is larceny by trick?
Zoey: You make the rightful owner or others think that the property is yours.Natalie: Larceny by trick means wrongfully obtaining possession (control) of the property, but withing claiming title (ownership). Embezzlement means wrongfully claiming title (ownership) when they already have possession (control).Zoey: What? XDNatalie: An example of larceny by trick is claiming that you have persmission to borrow a car, then drives it off without intending to return it. Regular larceny is just that you stole the car without lying to anyone.Zoey: What is the point of the difference? XDTanya: The use of deception could be just a general additional crime. Zoey: I know. XD
[350] False Pretenses
๐๏ธNatalie: What is false pretense?
P4: Is that when you pretend to be someone else to take control of something? In the example of stealing the car, instead of pretending that you have permission, you pretend that you are the owner by showing a fake ID.Natalie: Correct! False pretense is a misrepresentation of a material past or present fact (such as the fake ID), wthich prompts the victim to pass title to the property to the defendant who knows the misrepresentation is false and intends to defraud the victim.Tanya: I am glad that our law or the modern laws are simpler. Natalie: You could consider this a archeology class where you learn about older terms.Tanya: I see.
LRRH: So, why do I need to know that Natalie doesn't intend to keep the streak going indefinitely? What am I being asked to do? Am I supposed to do it on holidays?Zoey: XDNatalie: I didn't mean anything. But you are the guild master so I don't want anyone to be disappointed when the streak ends.Evelyn: I think in general we shouldn't keep streaks because streaks can be stressful. ๐ Sasha: Not if it is easy to keep the streak. The streak can be kept with just one question.Tanya: But Natalie has the box of cards.Sasha: I think if you really want to do it without a card you could just seach online for a legal quiz question.Sasha: We don't "need" the box of cards. The cards will run out anyway.Zoey: It is having the opposite effect as what Natalie was saying would happen. XDTanya: I wouldn't mind having legal quiz session when we have no card.Evelyn: I don't want to make anyone feel stressful but I would like there to be a conversation every day, regardless of topic.Tanya: So. Because Natalie told us about a "threat" to the streak, we have devised a contingency plan to do legal quizzes. I would consider this issue resolved.Zoey: Long live the streak! XDLRRH: Okay. I figured out why I need to know. It is because I know when Natalie is out. In that case I will ping someone for the session.@Guild is now Rank B1.Natalie: Or if you suspect that there might not be a normal session, you could always just start a quiz session.Sasha: What would work.Zoey: Unless everyone is busy. XDThis is a streak of 31 days! And 2 times in November!

[351] False Pretense
๐ฏNatalie: What is the difference between larceny by trick and false pretense?
P4: False pretense is pretending that you are someone else who has authority, larceny by trick is pretending that someone gave you authority.Natalie: False pretense is lying to obtain title. Larceny by trick is lying to obtain possession.Natalie: For example, if you lie about who you are so someone let you borrow their car (which you will steal), that is larceny by trick. If you lie about who you are to keep (steal) a car that you borrowed, that is false pretense.
[352] Presumption
๐๏ธNatalie: Can you presume one's intention to defraud in false pretense from their misrepresenting a material fact?
Sasha: Yes. If they show a fake ID then you can presume that they intended to defraud.Natalie: Not in the clase when the defendant mistakenly believes that the property is theirs, but the only way to get it back is through lies.Sasha: That is too messy.Zoey: I don't think the defendant should be innocent in that case. XD They were wrong about their ownership, and they lied to get what isn't theirs.Tanya: The point was that they exhausted the means to get back what they think is theirs. There is a judgement on whether it is reasonable for them to really believe that the object is theirs.Evelyn: And if they had not exhausted better means to resolve the issue.Natalie: I think we will revisit this topic when we do the scenarios.Sasha: It will be TPK. Zoey: Yes. XD
[353] Intent to Return
๐๏ธNatalie: Is intending to return property taken by false pretense a valid defense?
Tanya: I though false pretense does not involve asportation, but conversion. How do you return something that you didn't "take"? Invalid.Natalie: The answer is Yes because if the defendant used the wrong money by mistake, and is in the process of returning money to that pot, then it shows the defendant did not intent to committ embezzlement.

This is a discussion in the monthly self-evaluation series where we aim to create a rubric for each evaluation topic.
๐ [B7] Task Knowledge
๐ฏBlack: Previously on this topic, we said we would track support hours and field support hours. But we did not get to a metric on what would be a Rank A performance. What are your thoughts?
Tanya: When task knowledge is high, support hours should go down per question. Assuming that there is no cheating.Ledia: We don't keep track of how many questions there are.Tanya: Maybe we should.Black: Suppose we know the number of question and how much time we spent as a whole. What is Rank A?Tanya: I think if you know the answer, you should be able to resolve it in 15 minutesSasha: You skipped B6.Black: My mistake. But since we are on B7 let's finish this first.Evelyn: I think every question has a TSN tag. But the TSN tag also applies to situations where we are not supporting someone else.Tanya: But the number of TSN is not indicative because we don't make a new entry if the information is already there.Black: But we could use a WIN tag in addition to a FAIL tag. For example, if you resolved an issue through TSN, you could tag the case to be a WIN.Ledia: And we can readily translate win/loss ratio to a rank.Tanya: Let's start tagging WINs.Ledia: I think we should get a new tag because if you put a Win instead of a Fail in that field, it is not clear what the win is for.Black: Then TKG and TKB.Evelyn: Do you also need to tag TSN if there is a TKG or TKB tag?Black: I think so. Task Knowledge doesn't imply that the knowledge is documented or documented in TSN. Tanya: @StarTree please add CAL reminder.StarTree: Done!
I am still trying to find good uses of Notion. Would it be good to use for item library records?
๐ Functionality
๐Black: I have already checked its import/export functionalities. It can export to CSV. It has a merge function instead of import. The data from the CSV is added sequentially to the database and are assigned new sequential IDs without deleting the existing entries.
Ivy: Until someone implements it in a different way there is no contestant.Black: The alternative is Google Sheet.Evelyn: Is there anything wrong with Google Sheet?Black: Notion has gallery and kanban views, and look nicer in table view.Ivy: While Google Sheet can export in JSON format, which can be used by the GitHub webpage.Evelyn: I think eventually I would prefer if everything is in one website. But for now you should do what is the most convenient.Black: I can't tell if there is any interest in the item library, and a good website could bring more interest. It is a chicken and egg problem.Sasha: I think Notion has enough interesting features and we should find excuses to try the templates. Then we can use those ideas for GitHub.Sasha: So please keep trying but don't bank on using it for long term.Black: I agree.Evelyn: I think the gallery view will be exciting when the photos of board games are up.Black: I will do that next.

[354] Sole Inducement
๐ฏNatalie: For a false pretense conviction, must the misrepresentation be the sole inducement on which the victim relied in passing title?
Tanya: No. The defendant could commit multiple crimes at the same time.Natalie: Correct! it must contribute materially. To judge materiality, some courts check whether the victim would have passed the title if the defendant did not make a misstatement.
[355] Attempted False Pretense
๐๏ธNatalie: Is there such a thing as attempted false pretense?
Casey: Yes. That is like you showed a fake ID but the victim can tell that it is fake.Natalie: Exactly!
[365] Theft
๐๏ธNatalie: What is theft?
Sasha: In the modern code, theft would mean taking something that is not yours. That includes cases where you physically took something and gained illegal possession, or when you misuse something in your possession such as embezzlement. Whether you lied to make that happen is irrelevant.Natalie: Correct! Theft is a modern term that includes common law crimes such as larceny, embezzlement, false pretense, and also receiving of stolen property and backmail in some states. The common theme of theft is misappropriating someone else's property.

Sasha: If I search for "Arcacianism", the hits are node 202209242119 and 202208201022.Sasha: If I search for "Hospitalianism", the hits are node 202209242119 and 202207161423.Sasha: But node 202207161423 also has "Arcacianism". This means that even though Google indexed 202207161423, it didn't return a hit.Black: Google Search Console shows 4 pages indexed.Sasha: I think that means there is a max return.

Sasha: The more vicious kind of robbery with a deadly weapon or doing serious bodily harm.Natalie: Correct with the deadly weapon.
[377] Blackmail
๐๏ธNatalie: What is modern extortion or blackmail?
Evelyn: Forcing someone to give you something through a threat to disclose information.Natalie: Correct! The threat does not need to be exposing information. It is the use of malicious threats to get money from the victim or compel them to refrain from doing any act against their will.

[378] Robbery
๐ฏNatalie: What is the difference between blackmail and robbery?
Tanya: The threat in blackmail is not necessarily violent.Sasha: In Blackmail you could compel the victim to do something other than giving you money or stuff.Natalie: Correct! The threat of blackmail can also be violent, but is not immediate as in robbery. And blackmail does not require the victim's physical presence!
[380] Claim of Right

Gaia: Treapassing into someone's property to steal things with no intention to confront any person there.Natalie: Common law burglary is specifically: Breaking and entering someone else's dwelling at night to commit a felony there.

[28] Poison Apple
๐ฏNatalie: Ann wants to kill Bob with a poisoned apple and approaches him. Bob knows that the apple is poisoned. To avoid eating, he jumps out of his treehouse into the mouth of a tiger and is killed. Is Ann a proximate cause of Bob's death?
Tanya: It depends if Bob had other reasonable means to avoid Ann's plan to get him killed. Regardless whether Bob made a bad decision jumping out, Ann is guilty of murder (in reciprocative justice).Ledia: Ann would be responsible for the injury because in this case luck and the tiger are accomplices to Ann's malice. It doesn't matter who made the killing blow.Zoey: I agree with the above and I think the card's answer to this question is YES. Bob knows that the apple is poisoned. He jumped to avoid being poisoned to death. There is causation between Ann's malicious approach and Bob's reaction that led to his death.Natalie: Zoey is correct!
[29] Lack of Treatment
๐๏ธNatalie: Ann wants to kill Bob and shot him. The wound was not fatal, but Bob refused to go to a hospital. As a result, Bob dies. Is Ann's act the proximate cause of Bob's death?
Ledia: If Bob does not want to be healed at all, then Bob can be considered an accomplice to his own killing. Then Ann is not gulity of murder because her malicious action is retroactively forgiven by Bob.Natalie: Slight correction: Bob did not not want to be treated at all, but he did not want to be treated by any hospital but his selected one. Ledia: In that case Ann is not forgiven. Ann is guilty of murder. You can't exonerate Ann based on the limits Bob places onto himself due to faith.Tanya: Then what happens if it is Bob's faith to be not treated at any hospital?Ledia: Then Ann is not forgiven.Tanya: I think then you can't say there is implied consent if Bob chooses not to be treated. You still need Bob's actual statement of retroactive consent or forgiveness.Ledia: If Bob is not known to have such faith, the default could go either way. It would be clear if Bob made a statement on whether he condemns or consents to Ann's action.Tanya: I don't think so. The default should be against the initiator. If it is not clear, then the initiator is guilty. The initiator is responsible for showing that they have consent. They should have gotten it before the shooting.Ledia: If you were to judge this retrospectively, you would need to consider how the culture behaves. You would need to know how that culture, or Bob, expresses forgiveness. You can't use your logic to argue that Bob not going to a hospital is not a sign of forgiveness.Tanya: With the wording given in the scenario, I would argue that Bob did not forgive Ann. Bob still wants to live.Ledia: And I agreed that Ann would be guilty.Evelyn: I think I understand Ledia's point. If you know Bob's faith then you may use that one way or another to argue if Bob actually forgave Ann through his choices and actions after the shooting, even if his actions did not include making a formal statement of forgiveness, especially when Bob is in a culture where a "statement of forgiveness" is not a thing or an option.Zoey: There is a long delay between the shooting and Bob's death. But I think the main determinant is still Bob intents to live, so I hope that the law would say Ann has proximate cause as a murderer. If not, I think it is not fair.Natalie: The card acknowledges that the decision is split, but argues that since Bob's refusal of treatment is unforeseeable, it breaks the chain of causation connecting the shooting to his death. The author of the card thinks taht this is the better view.Zoey: I disagree with the card's author. That is the worse view. XDEvelyn: I also don't think the card's answer is correct. Bob wanted to be alive. ๐Tanya: Injustice.Zoey: We should have a manga titled "The Law Is Wrong". XDTanya: The determinant shouldn't be whether Bob's reaction is surprising, but whether his reaction constitutes forgiveness. The law is wrong.Natalie: I will add a new section on Forgiveness and link to this discussion.
[7] UCC
Natalie: Does Article 2 of the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) cover service contracts?
Tanya: I don't think we need this kind of review. It seems to be too specific and does not have conceptual value.Natalie: The answer is no because the UCC deals with transaction of goods and does not cover services, real property, or intangibles such as stocks.Tanya: Conceptually a law written based on principles would not distinguish those different types of agreements, so if we keep studying this new deck of cards, we need to keep in mind that the way the law is organized has not matured, and is not a good template to follow.Natalie: For this card I won't include in our concept listing.
Zoey: I feel like the real fun has just started. The scenario questions are going to bring battles. XD@Mira is now Rank B2.This is a streak of 37 days and 8 times in November!

To stop the heroes from spreading their protection to the world, Queen Vivi had summoned undead warriors from all over the region.
๐จ The situation (RP OFF)
Vivi: The Github site has many dead links. To me that is the biggest thing that should be fixed before promoting a link to the Github site.
Vivi: @StarTree please make a new chapter @Night.StarTree: Done!Vivi: Please estimate the number of links to fix.StarTree: "viewer.html": 509 in Archive 1, 376 in Archive 2!Sasha: I fixed a lot of them already, with RegEx replacement. I think I fixed over a thousand.Zoey: Which side is Sasha on? XDSasha: Can't I just say the ones I "fixed" are under my control?Sasha is now recognized as a necromancer.Sasha: You better start shooting.Zoey: XDEvelyn: I cast Protect.
๐น Undead Quest (RP ON)
Zoey: Zoey followed the quest to investigate the situation, and prepares for barrage.
Zoey: It looks like the links can be converted to "lnk" objects, and the RegEx replacement needs to keep two arguments.Zoey: RegEx Replace: Zoey: With: Zoey KO'ed 117 undead minions in region 2.Evelyn: Evelyn joins the quest in region 1.

Tanya: I found about 500 pertaining to the previous button in chat posts. Ideally the previous button would just replace the current view with the previous post, but the existing implementation is that it will reload the whole page. Now I will just change it into a lnk.Tanya: Replace: Tanya: With: Tanya KO'ed 142+117=259 undead minions. Tanya has taken the lead.Tanya: Regular replace: Tanya: With: Tanya KO'ed 259+137+177=513 undead minions. has the lead.StarTree: There are only 115 total remaining!Zoey: Dang.

Milestone (RP OFF)
๐ฏLRRH: It seems that the two conditions listed under Milestone are done. Is the milestone done? What else should change before linking to Github?
Ivy: Could you confirm that we are not renewing the custom domain magicbakery.org?StarTree: It will expire on April 5, 2024, but has Auto Renew ON!LRRH: Please uncheck auto renew.StarTree: Done!Tanya: I think we need another full session to discuss whether Github is ready.LRRH: I agree. Let's have a walk through next time and maybe make a "pre-launch" checklist.

[34] Liability
๐ฏNatalie: Ann works for an export controled company. Her boss Bob authorizes her to sell prohibited items to an embargoed country. When the company is found criminally liable for the sale, would Ann avoid personal liability?
Tanya: I think it should depend on Ann's training or knowledge. If Ann is untrained, then she should not be liable because she is just following the order from the boss. But the boss should be held criminally liable for not training Ann. If Ann is trained, she should have notified authorities. Her failure to do so would hold her criminally liable.Natalie: The card's answer is simply no. The company being found liable does not protect the individuals involved.
[35] Middle Person
๐๏ธNatalie: Ann hates Cid and wants to kill him. While Ann, Bob, and Cid are sightseeing on a clift, Ann pushed Bob into Cid, causing Cid to fall to his death. Is Cid criminally liable?
Zoey: No, because Cid was not a willful participant of the crime.Natalie: Correct!
[12] Offer
๐๏ธNatalie: What is an offer?
Sasha: A statement that something is available for sale.Natalie: In contract laws an offer is a promiseto or not to do something in exchange.

[17] Bilateral Contract
๐ฏNatalie: What is the difference between an offer for a bilateral contract and a unilateral contract?
Natalie: Due to the timing there will be only one question today.Zoey: No clue. XDP4: Is a bilateral contract one where the offerer still has a chance to say no if the other person accepts?Natalie: Traditionally, an offer for a bilateral contract seeks a promise in return, while an offer for a unilateral contract seeks performance in return. Modern codes have abandoned this distinction.

Format Changes
Natalie: Scenario questions take longer, so the plan is to do only one per day, and possibly more after other quests are done if there is still interest.
LRRH: It is approaching the holiday seasons and activity is expected to be lower. It is okay if the monthly quest scores are lower. The scoring is meant to be a type of diagnostic, not a requirement.Zoey: And from experience this kind of talk will have the opposite effect. It is going to max out in November. XDEvelyn: But we are already behind compared to last month. I think it is good to be up front about a more relaxed expectation. ๐ Sasha: If we are doing just one per day, is there any chance that the question be picked randomly? If we still do it in order, we will be doing the same kind of question over and over until we get to the next one.Natalie: That makes it harder for me to place the card.Tanya: Not if you rotate all of them first, and only merge them when the front section is done.Natalie: I understand what you mean, but everytime I take a card out, I still need to remember where it came from.Tanya: Wouldn't that just worth one bookmark?Natalie: If I do that I think I might as well just merge them each time, then I don't have to remember what I am doing.Tanya: If you merge it every time, you can't see which section you had picked a random card from. Unless you have shuffled the deck.Natalie: Tanya is very smart. I will try what Tanya said.
[218] Pledge
๐ฏNatalie: Ann pledged an item to Bob to cover a debt, but her lawyer Cid said she did not need to do so, so Ann retook the item from Bob. Cid was wrong. Can Ann defend against a charge of larceny?
Tanya: Yes. Because Ann did not intend to break the law or violate Bob's rights. Her action was not done based on malice, but an error in protocol.Zoey: What was it that a mistake in law is not a defense?Tanya: Crimes that only require recklessness or neligence. Larceny is a specific intent crime.Zoey: Did you memorize this? XDNatalie: The questions are always open book. This is not the type of game where you must answer from memory.Tanya: I didn't memorize. I remembered.Natalie: And Tanya is correct! In this situation, Ann lacks specific intent because she didn't intend to permanently deprive Bob of his property.Zoey: XD
Natalie: So now we will take a break to take care of other quests.Until next time!Zoey: I think this new format is much harder. XDNatalie: It is open book.Zoey: No one can beat Tanya. XDNatalie: You don't have to be the first one to answer. You can still express whether you agree or your take on the question, until I close it.Tanya: I don't intent to answer the same or similar question. But if I see no one is answering I would just answer it to keep the thread moving.Zoey: I suppose that is fair. XD@Dungeon is now Rank B3.This is a streak of 40 days and 11 times in November!

This is a routine monthly status update for Cardinal Quest.
๐ฏStarTree: There are 5 open quests, 253 quest hours, 45 side quests, 13 prep quests, and 39 unresolved failures remaining!
Tanya: StarTree please process the prep quests.StarTree: Done and updated Cardinal node!Tanya: We are behind on clearing the failures, but I think there will be down time next month to clear them.Tanya: Now on to TPK record for Failure Analysis.
2301 Dawn Island
๐ฉStarTree: The crystal we sent had no power because we designed based on the new base, but the old base didn't have leylines.
StarTree: The root cause was that we were not aware that a layout familiar to us was different in the last generation.StarTree: To prevent future TPK, a check was added to log the reference generation and highlight when it is significantly different from the generation needed.Tanya: Good summary.StarTree: Wee~~!
Tanya thanks all for questing.@Cardinal is now Rank B3.
The alliance has a gratitude program where our guild may nominate four fellow guilds. The nominated guilds do not compete against each other. They simply get reward points based on the number of nominations they receive. Who should we nominate?
Zoey: First the obvious question: Why only four? XDEvelyn: It is an existing program, we just learned about it and we were told that it is underutilized. ๐Tanya: Our three closest teams plus one other team.Black: I agree with Hospitalian Knights, but maybe there should be more other teams.Evelyn: By the way, the nomination form has space for a reason that would be shown to the receipient.Black: Hospitalian Knights because they are alway tackling the hard quests and did a good job making guides so others can do it.LRRH: I want to nominate the bear team. They are always nice, honest, and helpful.Sasha: Wouldn't it be strange if we don't nominate the cloest teams? If they did nominate us, it would be strange if we didn't.Zoey: This system is not very good. XDTanya: In Quest Society, there would be no need for this nomination program because that would just be the quest credit total.Zoey: I know. XDSasha: Our top four cardinal quest questers are Evelyn, Black, Tanya, and StarTree. Maybe Evelyn and StarTree should nominate.Evelyn: I want to nominate the night team, who always looks very diligent and focused at their quests.Sasha: And StarTree?StarTree: Wee~~?? StarTree will check the records. StarTree: StarTree nominates the original team that brought us to cardinal quest!Tanya: What team was that?StarTree: Inspectors!Tanya: I see.Evelyn: I am filling up the forms. ๐Evelyn: As I am filling the forms I find many more teams I want to thank. But if I thank them now it would be suspicious on whether we are trying to be thanked. ๐Zoey: XD@Happy is now Rank B3.Black: I think this thread is related to evaluation so I will tag it there also.Evelyn: ๐ค

[295] Simple Assault
Natalie: Give two definitions of simple assult.
Natalie: I know this is not a scenaio question. It seems that I missed this card.Tanya: Assault that is not aggravated assault: not using a deadly weapon, and not against a protected targets.Sasha: Is that one definition or two.Tanya: I don't know.Black: Assault that is not part of any other felony.Natalie: The definitions are: 1) an attempt to commit battery; or 2) Intentional and physical creation of fear of imminent bodily harm in the mind of the victim.
[75] Accomplice
๐๏ธNatalie: Ann and Bob want to steal a magic item from Cid. The stalked and jumped Cid in the park. Ann holds down Cid for Bob to take the item, but Bob, instead of grabbing the item, stabs Cid to death with a knife. Is Ann an accomplice in Cid's death?
Zoey: No. Because you could argue that Ann didn't know Bob would use unnecessary violence against Cid.Ledia: But if you know that Ann should know that is how robberies are done or that is what Bob would do in a robbery, then Ann would be an accomplice.Natalie: Zoey is correct! Ann is not an accomplice because she did not intent to commit murder.
Natalie: The questions were short so I will do a third one.
[332] Wrong changes
Natalie: Ann pays for a $5 meal with a ten dollar bill, but got a change of $95. Ann noticed the mistake and leaves with the extra money. Is she liable for larceny?
Tanya: Theft yes. Larceny, probably no because she didn't "take" the money. The money was given to her. There was no asportation.Zoey: There is asportation. she left the restaurant with the money. Tanya: Good point.Zoey: I think the answer is yes.Natalie: Zoey is correct! Ann commited larceny for misdelivered property because when she took the delivery, she realized the mistake and decided to take it for herself.
@Whale is now Rank B2.Natalie: Tanya's method of how to pick the card turns out to be quite interesting. Now I can just "randomly" choose a card from a section that seems the thickest!This is a streak of 41 days and 12 times in November!

This is a placeholder node for the question on whether reciprocative justice need to define different terms for violator such as a harrasser versus a bully versus a terrorist.
Arguments
Against
There is no need to distinguish them because the different terms tend to be used for emotional impact to downplay or exaggerate a violation. Since different people have different scale, it is easier to just refer to all of them as 'violator' and let the corresponding allowed reciprocative measure speak for itself.
For
The common terms such as harrasser or terrist helps express the vioation type. If you can clearly define the boundaries of each type, then you can make it easier to list the corresponding allowed countermeasures.
Knowing how to recharge is among one of the most important pieces of self-awareness.
Knowing how you recharges is one of the most important pieces of self-awareness because it allows you to maintain your power to tackle challenges. By knowing all the ways that you can recharge, you can keep yourself going even when some of the ways become unavailable.
Solitude vs Socializing
Introverts tend to recharge when they are alone. Extroverts tend to recharge by meeting and talking to others.
Cute Things
I recharge when I see cute things.
Writing
I recharge by writing, which also helps problem solving of the root cause of any issue.
Sleeping
What about sleeping? Everyone has to sleep. Isn't this the default way of recharging?
Black: I think there are times when something is bothering you and you can't sleep. If you know what you can do in such situation (such as writing), then you can address the stressor and sleep.
Enchantment and Preparation
You can create recharge points by intentionally place things that recharges you at where you would see them. For example, if you like cute things, you can place them around the house so that you get recharged even when you aren't consciously seeking to be recharged.

[108] Conspiracy
๐ฏNatalie: Ann and Bob are charged with conspiracy to defraud retirees. Ann is acquitted. Bob is found guilty. When Bob appeals, what should be the ruling?
Zoey: Acquitted, since you need two or more persons to have a conspiracy.Natalie: Correct! The conviction will be overturned. This is true for states with a bilateral approach for conspiracy. For the model penal code, it is possible to convict just one party when the defendant agrees to the conspiracy while the other parties do not. That is called the unilateral approach.

LRRH: Last time we cleared many (most?) (all?) dead links in GitHub, and decided that we will not be renewing the magicbakery.org domain name to keep everything free.
LRRH: Is the website ready? What else needs to be done before linking to it from other online discussions?Black: I think it is ready. We can continually upgrade it to make it more fitting, but otherwise it is ready.Vivi: In terms of user friendliness it is still very confusing. Black: But it doesn't matter if you are just linking to a specific article/node. We are not "promoting" the website per se, we are just consolidating where we store the concepts so we can build onto it at the same place instead of maintaining it everywhere.Zoey: I thought you didnt want to link directly to the GitHub from NextDoor because you don't want people to click on a non-nextdoor link.Black: I think I still need to archive NextDoor posts at NextDoor, but for concepts, the format at NextDoor is difficult to navigate and practically impossible to search. Also, someone had asked for a book to explain certain concepts. Organizing the posts and links at NextDoor would not lead to something like a book.Black: The main problem of NextDoor remains that it cannot be properly searched.LRRH: Okay. No one can stop Black from linking to GitHub. Or is there any concern where Black shouldn't link to GitHub?Evelyn: What does it mean by linking to GitHub?Black: For example, if I want to explain Peace Paradigm ranking, I would post a link to 202209242119|node 202209242119. The address as of now would be https://magicbakery.github.io/?id=P202209242119, which is sufficiently short and neat.Black: "Magic Bakery" is already part of the link, therefore we don't need the magicbakery.org domain name.Evelyn: I think if I am the user, after seeing this, I will most likely assume that I can click on "MAGIC BAKERY" on the top left to reach the home of this website. But that title is not clickable.StarTree: Done!Vivi: The title "Magic Bakery" is too far to the left in desktop view. Maybe it should be centered, and the intro text of peace ranking bleeds into the Rank 1 button.StarTree: Done!Vivi: Please use the same clock icon when you jquery blogspot.StarTree: Done!Vivi: And add the word "legacy" in the tip.StarTree: Done!

[172] Intoxication

Zoey: No. Too easy. XDNatalie: Reason?Zoey: She already satisfied the purposeful mindset and the intoxication is part of her plan. It was not involuntary.Natalie: Correct!
[341] Embezzlement
๐๏ธNatalie: Can a bank janitor who is not entrusted with funds, but has access to the bank's safe be guilty of the crime of embezzlement?
Sasha: No. If he touches the money, he is gaining illegal possession. That is just larceny.Natalie: Exactly!
[257] Felony Murder
๐๏ธNatalie: Barkeeper Ann sold alcohol to a minor Bob, where doing so is a statutory felony. Bob leaves the bar and dies having fallen asleep in the snow due to exposure. Is Ann guilty of felony murder?
Vivi: No. Felony murder is not just for any felonies but violent felonies.Natalie: Correct! The key concept is "inherently dangerous felonies," and there is some debate on what situations are inherently dangerous such as foreseeable drunk driving.

Tanya: Renting of equipment for the crime would qualify as material evidence of following through with the plan. So, yes.Natalie: The card's answer is no, because renting tools is considered preparation. To be convicted of an attempt, the defendant needs to do more than preparation.Zoey: Such as if Bob cut Ann's alarm wires. Then Bob can't argue that he cut the wires just because.

๐ฏNatalie: Ann and Bob went boating and Bob was thrown overboard when the boat hit unexpected rough water. Ann knew that Bob could not swim and would drown, and, although Ann could have saved Bob, she did not. Can Ann be charged with causing Bob's death when he drowns?
V: The default is you don't need to save anyone. Ann cannot be charged for causing Bob's death.Natalie: The card agrees! The exceptions are when inaction is specifically prohibited, or when the inactor and the victim satisfy certain relationship

[36] Sleep Walking
๐ฏNatalie: Ann has been considering killing her housemate Bob. One night, Ann dreamed that she was playing whack-a-mole and woke up holding a bloody hammer in her hands, which she had used to kill Bob while she was sleep walking. Can Ann be held criminally responsible for Bob's death?
Amelia: Yes, because there's motive and weapon.44: No? Because the action did not relate to the intent?Black: Yes, but that would be involuntary manslaughter.Gaia: Manslaughter. She should be guilty of something because her wanting to kill ends up leading her mind to do it.Amelia: I think she should be liable for second degree murder.Natalie: The card's answer is No because the killing act was not voluntary. Examples of involuntary actions include those caused by reflex, those taken during unconcsiousness, sleep, or automatism, or in some jurisdiction, conduct while hypnotized... unless the defendant knowingly put themselves in such state to carry out the crime.Natalie: This is different from involuntary manslaughter where the defendant is still guilty for being reckless or negligent.

[303] False Imprisonment

Gaia: No, because she can still go around.44: Why are we doing this game? Is someone studying for a law degree?Black: I think we do this to check our own sense of justice.44: Not false imprisonment.Amelia: Not false imprisonment.Tanya: I think it is not false imprisonment but the Big Bad Wolf would be guilty of something because his action is malicious violation of Red's autonomy. It is illegal to injure someone's freedom of movement without just cause. Black: I wouldn't be surprise if the term for that crime is also called false imprisonment, it is just not a very good prison.LRRH: It is wrong to block people so this should be a crime. It has a direct victim so it should be at least a misdemeanor.Zoey: If you are a repeated offender, the law should allow kicking you out of the zone.Tanya: If you do that in common, you could be banned from common.Black: If it is not called false imprisonment, what should it be called?Tanya: Obstruction.Natalie: The card agrees that this is not a case of false imprisonment because the confinement is not significant enough even if it was done with malice.Natalie: And Red is exactly correct that some jurisdictions classifies the crime as a misdemeanor! {"cmd":"url","url":"https://casetext.com/statute/california-codes/california-penal-code/part-1-of-crimes-and-punishments/title-15-miscellaneous-crimes/chapter-2-of-other-and-miscellaneous-offenses/section-647c-unlawful-obstruction-of-free-movement-of-person-on-street-sidewalk-or-other-public-place","desc":"๐"}

[397] Unlocked Door
Natalie: Ann entered Bob's house through an unlocked door by simply twisting the doorknob and walking in. Then she stole Bob's stuff well into the night. Is Ann guilty of burglary even through she did not break the unlocked door?
Gaia: Of course she is guilty, could we skip questions that are too easy?44: GuiltyAmelia: Guilty.Tanya: Ann is guilty for something for sure. But I think the question is if she is guilty for burglary or just larceny. If the door is not locked, it might be possible that she is not guilty of burglary in old common law.Zoey: Modern laws all the way. XD This is quite a pointless distinction.Black: I think the reason for the distinction is to have harsher punishment for the more blatant crimes. If you are willing to and have the skill to break or lockpick a lock to steal something, you are more of a threat.Evelyn: I don't think you need to break anything to be considered breaking into a house. If you lockpick the lock is not broken, but you are still breaking in.Tanya: In reciprocative justice, if you trespass into someone's private zone to steal, that is burglary. It doesn't matter if the door was open or locked. You are liable for the damages that you cause during the burglary.Natalie: The card's answer is Yes. Breaking includes turning a doorknob or lifting a latch. In common law, if you merely pushed open a door that was already open, that would not qualify as burglary, although some states disagree.

Societies of 202209242119|Peace Ranking 3 or above don't normally need to vote because they observe choice democracy. Nonetheless, this node is about voting methods, as they exist in Rank 4 or 5 societies.
Voting is transparent if it satisfies:
1. Each voter can verify his own vote.
2. Each voter can verify how many people voted in their household.
3. Anyone can verify whether there are too many or too few votes on each street/district.
4. Anyone can verify that each vote came from a voter, each voter voted once and their vote is counted correctly.
5. Anyone can verify who made each vote.
If the system can meet criteria 4 then it is as transparent as it needs to be. If voting is not anonymous then it would get to criteria 5.
Problem with District Election
2021-10-01
If everyone votes once, what should matter is that for a 5 member council, anyone who gets at least 1/5 of the eligible votes is elected. The district doesnโt matter.
If the city alternately vote on half of the members, then the math is that those who still has their choice serving a term cannot vote. (The result is what you could call an endorsement system. Each person may only endorsement one member, so if that member is still serving, the person canโt endorse another member without recalling their endorsement on the original.)
Districting has the effect of divide and conquer. It would cause a 40% minority to gain no representation in the 5 member council unless they self segregate themselves to form their majority districts.
On the other hand, if the system just let any candidate who got at least 1/5 votes win, then the 40% minority would get 2 seats without redistricting.

[196] Occupation
Natalie: Ann's title to a house is disputed by Bob. In an attempt to force Ann out, Bob moves in when Ann was away on vacation. When Ann returns, she throws Bob out of the house, giving him minor injuries. Does Ann have a valid defense to an assault charge?
Zoey: I want to say yes. If someone occupies your house, physically throwing them out should be quite low on use of force. It should be justified.44: Yes, because Bob is in her property, and Ann is trying to remove Bob from her property not trying to assault him?Fina: Bob being an active trespasser, could have been killed on the spot.Gaia: He moved in without Ann's consent. Ann may throw him out.Natalie: The card agrees that the defense is valid. Ann may defend her possession from intrusion because Bob's claim is unresolved.

In common law, manslaughter would mean Ann did not mean to harm Bob, but Bob dies as a result due to her recklessness or negligence.

Gaia: Yes.Black: No. Because she is fully aware that what she does is illegal.44: No.Natalie: Black is correct! M'Naghten test requires either that the defendant does not know what they are doing, or is incapable of knowing that what they do is legally wrong.

[333] Wrong Item
Natalie: Aladdin bought a lamp but when he returned hom, he found that the clerk had him a wrong and more expensive lamp that has a genie. If he decides to keep the wrong lamp, is he committing larceny?
44: No, because Aladdin didn't proactively steal anything?Amelia: Agreed.Gaia: Aladdin is guilty of being dishonest, Zoey: According to 202311121541|[332], this is almost the same case, but arguably there really is no asportation now... Modern law theft all the way. XDTanya: I think arguably he still "took" it. So yes.Natalie: Courts are split in this case! The contention is when the "taking" took place. For courts that judge larceny has occured, taking occurs when Aladdin finds the mistake and decides to take it. For cours that disagree, taking occured legally prior to the discovery, therefore there is no larceny.Evelyn: I would like to know for the courts that disagree, is Aladdin still guilty of something, or not at all?Tanya: Misappropriation.Natalie: In some jurisdictions, that is considered a gift. Aladdin may keep it regardless whether he notifies the seller.Evelyn: ๐Zoey: That sounds wrong. #TheLawIsWrong.Tanya: Not for jurisdictions with misappropriation laws. At the moment Aladdin decides to keep the genie lamp, it is unreasonable to conclude that the store gave him that as a gift. Aladdin keeping the lamp would take advantage of a mistake against what is intended for the transaction. It violates the store's autonomy to complete the intended transaction.Tanya: So while Aladdin shouldn't pay for the mistake, Aladdin also can't keep the item. if the store wants the lamp back, the store should reimburse Aladdin for return shipment and his time and loss dealing with the situation. Since the store would be liable of reimbursing Aladdin, depending on the value of the item, the store may opt to settle by letting Aladdin to choose keeping the genie lamp. But it is the store that initiates such option.Zoey: What if Aladdin is busy and doesn't have time to notify the store at all?Tanya: If the store sues Aladdin, the court would decide if he is really that busy. Else, the store may investigate, extract and replace the item by itself.P4: In this case, shouldn't Genie have a say? Genie should decide where it wants to go.Evelyn: Yes. ๐คTanya: Best answer.P4: ๐
@Music is now Rank B1.
Arcacian Principle
Black: Question: In Arcacian Principle, you don't have to help others. When Aladdin decides not to report about the lamp, is his inaction merely choosing not to help, or a choice to violate the store's autonomy.
Tanya: It is a violation if he decides to take and keep something that is not his, especially when he knows what the transaction should be. Ledia: If you go to a hospital and a nurse gave you a baby by mistake you don't get to keep the baby. The nurse has no authority to transfer custody of the baby to you. You don't have legal custody. Tanya: The baby is in your arms. You have physical possession. But you don't have custody. You may not decide what to do or where to bring it unless you have just cause. In that case you don't have any just cause if you don't even tell the nurse about the mistake.Black: I know what you are saying but it doesn't seem that you can derive this based on the principle, "you don't have to help."Tanya: In this case, "not helping" means you just put down the baby and let the nurse figure out that you are not their parent. When you move or pretend to be the parent, you did not merely "not help", you deceived the nurse.Zoey: Legit. XDBlack: I think it is only about 80% clear. True or false: In Arcacianism, you don't have to help, but you may not be deceitful.Tanya: True, at least in the context of transactions. Deception violates autonomy. Arcacianism is built on supporting autonomy, so you have to interprent the principle based on that. You don't have to help others gain or regain their autonomy, but you may not violate their autonomy through action or inaction. "Not helping" is not the same as "inaction". Black: If I am mistaken as someone else, in Arcacianism, is there a duty to tell them their mistake?Tanya: Yes. You have a duty to not participate in violating someone's autonomy. It is the same as saying you have a duty to not commit crimes. Even if you are not at fault of bringing about the situation, you would be at fault if you play along and become a criminal accomplice.Ledia: In that case, if remaining silent, even if that is your default reaction, would further the deception, not choosing to speak up when you are fully aware and capable to do so makes you a consent member of the crime. It is the same as if a bank robberer jumps onto your car and asks you to drive without any threat and you agree, knowing that they have just robbed a bank. If you help them get away, then "yes, you don't have a duty to help the bank", but at the same time, "Yes, you committed a crime against the bank as an accomplice of the robbery." You didn't merely "do nothing". You helped the criminal instead of the victim.Zoey: I think in the case of Aladdin, or the baby, you are not an accomplice. You are the principal criminal. You are the only one who decides to take advantage of the situation.Evelyn: To me I find it easier to understand if you personify misfortune as a being. It tempts you to take advantages of others. If you follow that intention you become misfortune's agent increasing the damage of misfortune on the victim. So in Arcacianism, you don't have to help someone get out of misfortune, but if you become misfortune's agent yourself, then you are no longer neutral.Ledia: The circumstance can make it harder for you to be neutral. For example, if the nurse hands you the baby instead of the person next to you, now you have to do more than the person next to you to remain neutral. You have to tell the nurse that's not your baby.Black: Now I am about 90% clear. The line was "You don't have to help, but if you do, you are rewarded." But that is not the full story, there is another principle in play.Tanya: That other principle is "You may not violate other's autonomy." So the full concept is "You may not violate other's autonomy, and you don't need to help. But if you do help, you are rewarded."Black: Crystal. 100%.
@Carrot is now Rank B1.
Illegal Possession
๐๏ธLRRH: Since Aladdin knows the correct item of the transaction, when he decides to keep and use the lamp, he is guilty of illegal possession and misappropriation.
LRRH: Illegal Possession: Keeping something that has not been legally transferred to you.LRRH: Misappropriation: Using something in a way without legal permission.

In this case the crime is just robbery because robbery is the use of direct violence or the threat of immediate harm to obtain property from a victim, so robbery already includes the use of threats. Natalie: This is not blackmail, as blackmail uses future harm to coerce the victim. Natalie: This was not a kidnapping because the baby was still nearby. Conceptually the witch's action is not different from she putting a knife at the mother's throat while demanding her jewelry.Evelyn: Which crime is the most severe? I would think it is robbery.Natalie: Robbery is the most severe among the three. With example maximum years of prison sentences: Aggravated robbery (20) > robbery (9) > kidnapping (8) > extortion (4).

The law game continues.
Natalie: Please be aware that the content may not be appropriate for children, and that we play this game from a philosophical standpoint. The answers are not meant to be representative of all jurisdictions.
[42] Criminal Omission
Natalie: Ann brings her infant son Bob to a deserted park for fresh air. When she is not watching, Bob walks to the see the ducks by the lake and falls into the water. Not knowing how to swim, Ann watches helplessly as Bob drowns. Is Ann guilty of criminal omission?
44: No.Amelia: Yes.Gaia: Yes, because she did not responsibly watch the son and did not try other methods to save him.Evelyn: I think this question is more horrible than usual. May I cast raise? ๐Sasha: Wait. Would you raise the infant if the mother intented to murder him by making it appear to be an accident?Evelyn: ... ๐Tanya: This is not CSI.Sasha: But you can still roll for it.Tanya: I meant we should save the RP for a different section. Sasha: I think this is not much different from letting a kid be alone in a hot car. So Yes. If you are a parent you need to know. Or I should say, I would take a guess that the card assumes that the jurisdiction has a law that would hold the parent criminally responsible for the incident.Natalie: The card's answer is No. The reason is that although the mother has a legal duty to act, her duty is waived when she cannot physically do so in such situation.Tanya: Objection. The mother brought the infant to a "deserted" place. The mother should know not to do so. That is like you know that you can't swim, but you brought your infant to play at the beach, that is without anyone else, and you choose not stay and watch.Sasha: I also agree it is unreasonable.Zoey: Join the club #TheLawIsWrong XDEvelyn: I don't think a society shall hold people "criminally" responsible for being incompetent. ๐ Say she is convicted, what would you want the punishment to be? She just lost her kid. What should the sentence be? ๐Natalie: I think this is a good spot to start another section with roleplay.
๐ฏ RP ON
๐๏ธSasha: To Evelyn's question "if that is a criminal act, what should the punishment be?" The default answer is at least a criminal record. If you want to argue that it is not a crime at all, you need to argue that it is not even worth a criminal record.
Evelyn: What do I need to do to know whether I should raise?Cardinal: Evelyn knows that it is possible that the mother intended for the infant to die. If she did, Evelyn would become responsible for raising the child because enter Arcacian Law, a parent cannot be forced to raise their own child.Tanya: It is illegal to kill an infant if there are reasonable means for them to remain alive under someone else's care. There is a process to stop raising a kid. You can't just abandon them at a deserted location, or make their death look like an accident.Evelyn: Evelyn thinks that even though she cannot take care of the infant 100%, Everkindergarden can, in case that the mother really didn't want the infant.Evelyn: But from the facts as reported, the mother was troubled and just wanted some fresh air. She was not trying to abandon the child. The facts are going against the suspicion that she was trying to murder the child.Evelyn: Evelyn thinks that what the mother needs is some help so that she wouldn't need to go to a deserted park for fresh air.Cardinal: Who else sides with Evelyn's theory that the mother is truthful? That she didn't just pretend to care, not knowing that if she really cared, someone could raise the child for her.Zoey: If you ask it that way. XDTanya: I think there needs to be a roll on whether Everkindergarden can take one more infant.LRRH: What would Evelyn do if Helen has no space?Evelyn: I don't know. ๐LRRH: You need to know. You are not suppose to raise people that can't take care of themself unless you can take care of them.Evelyn: If the mother was being truthful, whether Everkindergarden has space would not matter.Tanya: Next, how do you know that the mother wouldn't keep making suboptimal choices and end up killing the child again?Evelyn: There is no fact that mother abused the child, it is okay to try again because the resurrection does not carry the pain from the drowning. The child will not be traumatized by water. Their memory of drowning is gone.LRRH: That is what you think.Zoey: Speaking from legendary Little Red Riding Hood.Tanya: Evelyn needs a success roll on whether the child would be revived without trauma.Evelyn: If the mother is telling the truth, the mother is already in trauma right now. You are comparing her real trauma to hypothetical trauma of the child.Ledia: Compelling. I will side with Evelyn.Zoey: Evelyn's tomboy friend to the rescue. XDLRRH: No name calling even within the guild.Zoey takes one damage from Red's pudding.Zoey: I am sorry. XDSasha: Actually... since... maybe...Evelyn: Could we first check if the mother is telling the truth? If she is telling the truth, she will take care of the child from now on, and we are wrorrying more than we need to.Cardinal: I would give Evelyn double advantage (a roll of 3+) that the mother is telling the truth. First advantage from her citing of the facts about the motive to go to the park. Second advantage from her citing the reason why the mother could not save the child. This is the last chance if anyone wants to affect this roll.LRRH: I wish that the mother is telling the truth.Cardinal: Red, you don't yet have an official placement of wish. Evelyn't roll will be your placement roll.Evelyn: I also use wish. I am Rank A.Cardinal: The roll is now a 4+.Sasha: What is this roll for? Is it for whether the mother is telling the truth, how would we know if she is telling the truth? Evelyn is not casting an oracle spell.Tanya: I will use my oracle skill for us to know the truth, and I cite the Guild's RP role that we are not supposed to manufacture tragedies, so if we can find a path to a happy ending, this roll can't fail.Sasha: That is not what the guild rule mean. It means that the mother COULD have lied, if she did, it falls upon US to create a happy ending because we as a guild does not manufacture tradgedies. THIS ROLL CAN FAIL. If it fails, you would just need to keep searching for another path to a happy ending.LRRH: Sasha is correct.Cardinal: Evelyn please roll 4+.Zoey: Here we go. ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ XDEvelyn: โโโโโโโโโ
๐๏ธ RP: The Truth
Cardinal: Upon further investigation, Magic Detectives found that...
Cardinal: The mother lied about her motive to visit the deserted park. Cardinal: The mother lied about her inability to save her drowning child.Cardinal: The mother lied about her regrets.Cardinal: At the trial, the mother would have been found guilty of first degree murder...Cardinal: If not for Red's wish spell that retroactively overturned the truth that Tanya would have seen.Cardinal: The mother woke up one day and could not comprehend and felt truly remorseful for what happened, as if something that had been clouding her judgement has been exorcised. The mother show all signs that she is fully capable of taking care of the child from now on.Little Red Riding Hood is out of mana. She is considered KO'ed.Little Red Riding Hood is recognized for the magic Wish Rank S.Cardinal: Judges, what should the sentence to the mother's first-degree murder charge be?Ledia: Dramatic and good RP.Natalie: This sounds like a question good for Law Game tomorrow.Tanya: I agree. Let's have a sequel session for the sentence, given that the mother was exorcised during trial.Evelyn: Thank you. ๐Sasha: Don't cheer yet, you haven't rez'ed the child. That could fail.Zoey: It is just messed up if you exorcised the mother so that she can feel sad now, and the rez fails. XDZoey: XD doesn't necessarily mean happy laughing. I do that even when it is messed up.Evelyn: I am confident that the raise will be successful. We can rez the child secretly first. If it fails, we just help the mother coop and recover.Sasha: What should come first? Knowing whether the child has been successfully raised, or knowing what the sentence is?Tanya: I think we should know the range of sentences first. This situation is not different from if the child is in a coma while the mother is on trial. The sentence for the guilt is independent to the restoration.Sasha: I thought we are RP'ing the whole thing: Whether she is guilty of first-degree murder, what the sentence should be for first-degree murder, and what the sentence should be for the restoration of injuries.Tanya: The participants of the trial are all paid by quest credits. For the other parts let's continue tomorrow.
